By implementing this project we aimed to develop Digital Friendly Schools with a clear Digital Pedagogical Strategy, spanning the effect among partner countries. To this end we accomplished the following: 1. Our primary goal was to broaden our expertise and foster the creation of Digital Friendly School strategies. This expertise would benefit school management, teachers, students, and parents, helping them navigate the digital education landscape effectively. 2. We aimed to empower each school to create its own Digital Pedagogical Strategy, tailored to its unique needs. This would seamlessly integrate digital resources and tools into teaching practices. 3. We developed a web-based mapping tool, which is crucial for assessing our Digital Pedagogical Strategy Preparedness and for providing guidance to schools to address critical areas for improvement. 4. By creating the MOOC resource of e-Activities and guidelines we believe we have equipped teachers with some skills to develop digital materials and ensure a holistic learning experience. 5. We established a centralized resource hub for digital content, facilitating knowledge and resource sharing among teachers and students.
We applied for the "DigitPedZgen" project to address specific, pressing needs in the field of education due to COVID-19 crisis necessitating an immediate shift to digital learning across European countries. Our application aimed to respond to this urgent need for a well-defined and effective digital pedagogical strategy to facilitate the transition. The project aimed to equip teachers and school managers with the skills and knowledge needed to deliver high-quality inclusive digital education. The crisis underscored the demand for learning resources that align with sound pedagogical principles. We aimed to provide guidance and sustainable tools to avoid the challenges experienced during the initial phase of the COVID-19 crisis in spring 2020. We believe that our project successfully addressed urgent needs, enhancing digital pedagogical capabilities, customizing strategies, creating assessment tools, empowering teachers, and establishing a resource center for high-quality, inclusive digital education. These initiatives were crucial for ensuring high-quality, inclusive digital education within our institution and adapting to the evolving educational post-Covid-19 landscape.
