Digital Firefly – Survey for educators
Digital Firefly is an Erasmus+ co-funded project which aims to identify and address the challenges teachers, trainers, and teacher-educators face in developing entrepreneurial competences online, with special attention to the development of online and blended learning tools. The project is looking for teachers and educators, especially those working with secondary and VET students aged 14 to 19 years old to find out more about their experiences developing entrepreneurial competences during the pandemic in order to create a responsive suite of tools case studies and training to upskill and prepare entrepreneurial educators to develop entrepreneurial competences online in the secondary environment.
There are two surveys, depending on your role as either a policy-maker or teacher, we appreciate you time in supporting this research project.
Entrepreneurial and educational resources in Ukrainian
With the ongoing crisis in Ukraine, the EntreComp Community team want to support our friends in a small way with learning resources in the Ukrainian language. We have collated a list of resources for Ukrainian teachers to develop entrepreneurial skills – including the EntreComp Playbook and EntreLearn which have both been translated into Ukrainian for the first time by Me and My School with support from Bantani Education and The EntreComp Community. There are also resources developed by various European institutions to support displaced teachers and learners as well as schools and teachers supporting displaced learners across Europe. We hope that this small effort will provide value to those in crisis, and those supporting them ??. Find all the resources on The EntreComp Community.
