This document is the presentation for the second Module webinar of the teacher training offered during the ENhANCE project*, focusing on familiarization with the main project outputs (Curricula & OOT). Specifically, the slides present the Professional Profile for Family and Community Nurses developed during the project, describing its components: 28 core competencies, 7 units of learning, and 54 learning outcomes. The curriculum is devised to be modular and flexible; as such, national adaptations have been developed for implementation in Italy, Greece, and Finland. The slides present the process that led to the definition of the national curricula, and provide suggestions for teachers designing pilot courses for Family and Community Nurses: assessing students' performance and participation, promoting collaboration and practice sharing, supporting community building, promoting self-regulated learning, striving to recognise prior non-formal and informal learning (e.g. learning obtained through professional practice), giving students the opportunity to personalise their learning path, and sharing contents as open educational resources.

This document is the first release of the European Curriculum for Family and Community Nurses, developed during the ENhANCE project*. The curriculum has been presented during the second Module of the teacher training path offered during the project. The curriculum includes 54 learning outcomes grouped under 7 units of learning, and is designed to be flexible and modular. This flexibility allows it to be adapted to specific national contexts through the design of a national curriculum. During the second module of the ENhANCE teacher training path, participants were familiarised with the curriculum and with the process that led to its implementation in three different national contexts (Italy, Greece, and Finland).

This document is the presentation for the third Module webinar of the teacher training offered during the ENhANCE project*, focusing on the basics of collaborative learning and learning design. The slides present the key concepts of learning design, including the ADDIE (analysis, design, development, implementation, evaluation) model. Subsequently, the slides present the design principles for online collaborative learning, focusing on the 4T model (task, time, technology, and team). Lastly, some techniques that can be used for supporting online collaborative learning are presented: the jigsaw, peer review, role play, debate, and pyramid. These techniques are then contextualised in the activities envisioned in the ENhANCE teacher training path, detailing how participants to the course will design their own collaborative learning paths to be used in pilot courses.

This document is the presentation for the fourth Module webinar of the teacher training offered during the ENhANCE project*, focusing on the basics of self-regulated learning and gamification. The slides present a definition and the main models for conceptualising self-regulated learning, such as Zimmerman's model and the 4C framework. The slides also include suggestions for designing activities promoting Self-regulated learning, such as focusing on meta-cognition and encouraging self-assessment. 

The second part of the slides present some gamification approaches and techniques, starting with Deterding et al.'s definition of the concept. Some of the myths surrounding gamification are discussed and debunked. 

Lastly, the slides describe how self-regulated learning and gamification have been implemented in the Open Online Tool, a learning environment developed and used during the ENhANCE project both for teacher training and for training of family and community nurses.

Academic paper, in Italian, presenting the 4T framework for learning design of collaborative learning activities. The 4T framework identifies time, team, task and technology as key characteristics of a learning design. The paper describes the model in general, as well as a gamified approach for facilitating its use and adoption in a collaborative way. 

This paper has been used as a learning material in the ENhANCE* teacher training course. 

Abstract: 

Questo articolo si colloca al crocevia tra il settore del Learning Design (LD) e quello del Computer Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) in quanto propone un metodo per supportare la progettazione di attività di apprendimento online di tipo collaborativo. Nel settore del CSCL, le ‘tecniche collaborative’ e gli ‘script’ sono considerati concetti fondamentali per progettare attività di apprendimento collaborativo online e le proposte di strumenti tecnologici basati su tali concetti sono numerose. Tuttavia, la maggior parte di questi strumenti nasce con l’obiettivo di rappresentare il progetto educativo, al fine di favorire la comunicazione attorno ad esso, partendo dal presupposto, talvolta implicito, che questo sia già chiaro nella mente del docente progettista, mentre più rari sono gli strumenti tesi a supportare il docente nella fase di ideazione e concettualizzazione di un’attività collaborativa. Il metodo presentato in questo articolo appartiene a questa seconda categoria ed è basato su un modello per la progettazione di attività collaborative e su un gioco ad esso ispirato. Il modello è uno strumento concettuale che supporta la fase di ideazione di un’attività collaborativa definendola in termini di quattro componenti (le 4T): il Task (Compito), il Team/s (Gruppo/i), il Time (Tempo), e la Technology (Tecnologia). Il gioco costituisce uno strumento tangibile costruito sulla base del modello, comprendente delle carte e un tabellone che vengono usati dai progettisti per dare corpo al proprio progetto. Il metodo proposto è stato sperimentato con successo da 44 insegnanti e costituirà la base per lo sviluppo di uno strumento digitale ispirato al metodo stesso.

This academic paper has been used as a learning material in the ENhANCE* teacher training path. It states the Larnaca Declaration on Learning Design, which arose from a 2012 meeting of experts in Larnaca, Cyprus who sought to provide a new theoretical foundation for the field of Learning Design, based on a synthesis of research and practice in the field to date. It begins by acknowledging the vast benefits that would arise from wider sharing of effective teaching practices, and it uses an analogy from the history of music notation to identify the need for a representational framework for describing teaching and learning ideas. It provides a range of examples of learning designs and different representational systems to illustrate the need for a “Learning Design Framework” (LD-F). It then acknowledges the wider educational context and its impact on design decisions by educators, and provides a “Learning Design Conceptual Map” (LD-CM) to identify contextual components and their interactions in design decisions. It concludes by discussing the philosophical and practical challenges of identifying and sharing effective teaching and learning ideas under the heading “Learning Design Practice” (LD-P).

This document presents some techniques for fostering self-regulated learning. This material has been used in the ENhANCE* teacher training course. The document, which is in Italian, starts with a description of the concept on self-regulated learning, describing its cognitive, meta-cognitive, emotional, motivational, behavioural, and operative characteristics, as well as arguing for its importance in the school setting, in University, and in life-long learning. The documents includes some suggestions for designing learning activities promoting self-regulated learning, and proposes the use of some technological tools (virtual learning communities, social media, and personal learning environments) to this end.
