21st Century Skills & Mentoring
Date: June 20
Venue: Elluminate
Time: 12.00 GMT (13:00 UK, 14:00 CET)
It was the digital native and digital immigrant cliché which inspired the intercultural approach of the VITAE project to ICT integration in adult education. A significant proportion of teachers are still hostile to the integration of ICT in everyday practice even though this means that they miss out on opportunities to enrich and engage. If this hostility is re-cast as a culture clash then maybe an intercultural journey led by mentors is a way of smoothing the path. My session will take you on this intercultural journey giving you a taste of how mentoring could help by concentrating on the pedagogic benefits of ICT integration.
