The overall objective of the project is to develop innovative, modern and easy-to-implement learning and practising modules in the areas of Cloud Computing and IOT, which are located within the Industry 4.0 area at the VET Schools of IT and universities. Specific objectives of project: Special Purpose-1:Training 10 volunteer vocational teachers, academicians or educators who are selected among the local partners of the project and vocational education institutions working in similar fields in Cloud Computing and IOT areas in order to provide the manpower of our country as qualified teachers, lecturers / instructors in Cloud Computing and IOT fields. Special Purpose-2:In order to provide qualified manpower of our country grown in Cloud Computing and IOT areas; a training will be provided by our project partner, BFU University and EVM, for 10 students who will be enrolled these courses officially in Cloud Computing and IOT areas.Beside, a pilot scheme will be apllied to 40 students studying at Zonguldak MTAL(slient pilot partner). Purposes of our project: •Expanding the pool of specialized staff who can lead the research in the field of Industry4.0 in the vocational school, associate degree and undergraduate level and promoting the national digital industry level •Bringing qualified manpower in the fields of Cloud Computing and IOT •Encouraging distance education systems •Providing basic skills and abilities and supply and demand alignment in the labor market •Strengthening the international dimension of Education and Training •Supporting improvement at the institutional and individual level •Promoting R&D activities •Cooperating in the field of VET and Higher Education •Reducing economic sector deficits and incompatibilities through concurrent curriculum and implementation alignment through strong,lasting partnerships between social partners,the private sector,universities,development agencies,trade chambers and VET providers •Encouraging the development of skills and competences of trainers and teachers through work-based learning(through short-term learning activities) •Developing new approaches to empower the trainers and the possible training methods •Developing capacity and professionalism to work at EU and international level •Ensuring the modernization and professionalism of our institutions •Developing digital skills and distance education at the level of education and training •Supporting strong partnerships between the business community and educational institutions •Promoting Continuous VET with easy access and career orientation •Raising awareness in the society about the importance of Industry4.0 in the digital industry. In order to achieve these objectives,our project products and intellectual output are: •Modern and innovative learning and practising modules in the easy-to-implement Cloud Computing and IOT areas •E-Learning Platform for the delivery of lesson learning and practising modules to every segment of society •To raise awareness: -Conferences,seminars -Project Magazine,Brochure,CDS,Web Site -Informing the public through the media and publishing organs -Posters. "Instructional System Design" will be referred to in the development of the project products and in the development of the learning and practising modules which are our intellectual outputs."ADDIE Model" was chosen as the project methodology.This model is a systematic approach model based on Analysis,Design,Development,Implementation and Evaluation processes.All the work of our project will be carried out in accordance with the principles of "satisfaction,process improvement,team work and decisions are based on actual evidence" The activities to be carried out within the scope of project activities are: *Activities that encourage the implementation,development and testing of innovative practices in education,training and youth(our outreach outcomes,our products and short term training activities are suitable for this title) *Activities facilitating the approval and recognition of knowledge,skills and competences acquired through formal and informal learning(opening the courses at the undergraduate level and crediting them in ECTS with international validity). *Seminars,conferences,press announcements to be held within the scope of dissemination activities. Our project is fully compatible with the target of the Ministry of National Education 2023 vision of the vocational and technical education Target 3,4,5,6,7 (http://2023vizyonu.meb.gov.tr/) Target beneficiaries;Trainers and students in IT.Project will be 24months and 5meetings are planned.Two attendees from each institution will attend the meetings.In addition,each institution will give a seminar about its project and its outputs.It is targeted that more than 350people in our project will be beneficiary.Participants in conferences will also contribute positively to multiplier effects in terms of dissemination.he multiplier effect will be maximized with all activities
By implementing the project, it was aimed to contribute to the development of qualified individuals in the IT profession. In addition, in the needs analyzes we conducted with our project partners, it was determined that there is no training program implemented in Vocational Education in the field of Cloud Computing and IoT. The main objective of our project was to develop up-to-date examples and applications suitable for real business world in cloud computing and IoT fields and to train teachers and students with this developed training material. In this context, with our project; - Wanted to create Cloud Computing and IOT learning and application modules for VET, - Wanted to encourage the use of distance education in order to integrate formal and non-formal education with digital technology and reduce inequalities in access to education, - Wanted to improve the management processes of VET schools, to increase teacher qualifications and to strengthen vocational and technical education, - Wanted to give the opportunity to develop effective digital, open and innovative education and pedagogies through the use of ICT. Our onjectives have been achieved with our project.
In the 2019 unemployment figures announced by Eurostat, 15.6 million people are unemployed in 28 EU countries, 12.3 million of which are in the Euro zone. 16% of vocational high school and university graduates between the ages of 16-29 are unemployed. There are very few staff in the EU labor market with the necessary skills for the most needed occupations in Industry 4.0. Because it is a problem to train students with the qualifications that today's labor market is looking for. It is especially important for the interests of countries and Europe to raise individuals who possess the innovations and qualities brought about by the fourth industrial revolution. Establishing a qualified workforce and establishing technological infrastructure are of great importance in all EU countries. This situation has been mentioned in the reports for the EU. For this reason, the main reason for our application is to contribute to the development of qualified manpower in the field of Cloud Computing and IoT, which is rising in the field of IT, and to develop the training materials needed in this field. The needs we have addressed are the lack of educational materials in these areas and the consequent difficulties in raising qualified manpower.
