Design Methodology

The “FERTILE” project’s 1st result focuses on developing the “FERTILE” design methodology to address digital transformation in teacher education.

A handbook on the implementation of the “FERTILE” design methodology is developed with guidelines for educators to: 

1) share activities between face-to-face sessions and online ones,

2) select appropriate ER technologies and ER simulators for various educational contexts such as primary/secondary/higher education,

3)  holistically cultivate computational thinking skills by integrating ER with Arts,

4) organize online interaction in a communication platform to enhance co-design and community learning. 

Milestones

The milestones set include:

(i)  A review on the current trends in ER  (Milestone 1.1)

(ii) Profiling of educators involved with ER (Milestone 1.2)

(iii) An initial version of the “FERTILE” Design Methodology (Milestone 1.3)
