Objectives

There is a lack of interaction and communication in e-learning activities, communication barriers have a bad effect on the perception of such activities by young people. In implementing the project, we wanted to teach the participants, i.e. youth workers, how they can accessibly connect and interact with young people during online activities. It was important that during online education each class participant felt important and part of a particular project/task, so that they could comfortably communicate and exchange products with others. We wanted to make sure that after this project and the training provided, a new quality and skills to work with young people would be created in the youth workers, so that young people's digital presence would not be a blockade but a privilege for them.

Background

During the COVID-19 pandemic, many countries closed their educational institutions and overnight everything moved online. Teachers and those working with children and young people collided with a wall. They lacked the experience and skills to work online. Communication barriers arose that posed a problem in establishing contact, making any online activities unattractive to young people, they lacked the desire to cooperate and were not active during online meetings. The main goal of the project is to introduce collaborative methods in online learning environments and make wider use of these tools, to enable mutual learning. The project will enable the use of innovative methods and techniques in online learning environments of youth workers in institutions and organizations.
