Many of development processes and projects get lost/ stuck in today´s organizational complexity or too traditional developing matters - such as too much planning and then having a pilot of this, or not have the money. In this case, all the participants and local companies and work life are doing collaboration together to improve the quality of work, services and competences needed in the future! The project activities will give a good picture of the process of Design Doing to the partners, but also to the students and other teachers/workers locally and support do experiments integrated to professional studies and collaboration with local companies. In this project made there will be 2 project meetings, 5 workshops and local, national and international dissemination events. There are three goals: 1. Creating the high impact change of collaboration of the work life and vocational education organizations: the new model of collaboration, which is based on Design Doing (not only Design thinking), sharing the expertise to each other and creating the collaboration culture. 2. Learning the Design Doing process, integrate it in VET and learn how to use it in companies. Participants will have experience of sharing the skills in action when working with customers and they will get competence and courage to do experiments. The main idea is keep the experiments simple with reasonable costs, use suitable tools and save time, money and get results. 3. Improving the efficiency of work by LEAN thinking and learning simple methods and principles of it, then adopting these to daily procedures of teachers/entrepreneurs. During the project we are figuring out if the LEAN 5S-principles can be used as framework for experiments. This project and learning activities are meant to teachers/entrepreneurs/workers to improve their skills and competence in development, but also some students who help us to create model for all fields of studies. Teachers acts as coach when doing workshops tasks with students and get ideas also from student. During the activities/work shops we will reach many kind of work life partners (secondary) in each countries and get also familiar with business in European region. The main results are: 1. Educational model and tools of Design Doing in each partner language. 2. Improved collaboration with work life. 3. Guide videos of collaboration and experience of partners and students. 4. Example of experiments done, improved services and products, examples how to LEAN teachers/entrepreneurs work in practice. Partners in this project are versatile. There are five different kind of educational organisations: North Adult Education Center/ PKKY, Finland Vrij Katholiek Onderwijs Opwijk/ Belgium IES FELIPEDEBORBON CEUTI/ Spain Coleg Gwent / UK and University of Almeria/Spain. Additionally there are two privat companies: Aspa Palvelut Oy/ Finland and L´Angsa Umbria as association and with their company La Semente/ Italy and one association: AIAB Italy/ Italy, whose members are privat companies.
Design Do and Leani it- project developed an experimental development study course with video, tools and guidebook based on education used in Riveria, but modified and developed futher to be suitable for all partners and VET Europe wide. Italian, Finnish, Belgium, Welch and Spanish partners (8), local companies and work life collaborated to improve the quality of work, services and competences needed in the future! The partners, but also to the students and other teachers/workers locally were supported by project manager of Riveria to do experiments and to use lean thinking methods is daily actions. We had 2 project meetings, 5 workshops and local, national and international dissemination events. There were three goals to achieve: - The first was to enhance collaboration of the companies/other organizations and VET organization. Tools were developed and tested in practice, also students and teachers have used tools and cases were solved in companies. Collaboration based on sharing the expertise to each other and creating the collaboration culture. - The second was support learning the Design Doing (experimental development) process, integrate it in VET and learn how to use it in companies. Participants have had experience of sharing the skills in action when working with customers and they got competence and courage to do experiments. The main idea is keep the experiments simple with reasonable costs, use suitable tools and save time, money and get results! Guidebook and video with easy examples are launced in Erasmus+ dissemination platform. There are insturction how to use Experimental development -course and if needed, more help is offered by Katja Väyrynen from Riveria. - The third goal was to improve the efficiency of work by LEAN thinking and learning simple methods and principles of it in partner organizations. Then adopt these to daily procedures of teachers/entrepreneurs/workers. During the project we tested the LEAN 5S-principles, Lean A3 and Waste-analyze. These are helping to find out challanges needed to develop and also make fluency in the processes. Main results are: Guidebook of experimental development and instruction video. Language used was English. Original plan was only translate tools in own languages, but when we did a guidebook too, it can be translated easily to different languages, but without intellectual outputs funding, we desided to do only English version.. This experimental development study course created is really suitable in all kind of challanges, in all fields of study and industry. Please try and get rapid results!
