Research

This research was done by involving interviews with ALE educators, organisation representatives, learners, decision-makers and digitalisation specialists; reviewing literature and desk research, and identifying useful case studies and best practices which will inform the development of the ETHLAE Toolbox, setting up its methodological framework.

This collection and analysis of relevant existing methods,  good practices and tools is based on the existing work on emerging technologies in the education setting at large, also from other sectors, such as schools, Higher Education and Vocational Training and Education, which will support the development of learning scenarios for adult learning. Partners also conducted an exploration and scoping activity to contextualise the implementation of emerging technologies in literacy programmes for adults, identifying the main enablers and obstacles. By examining existing frameworks and practices, opportunities for learning improvements in adult education through emerging technologies can be identified, which will now be explored.

This research was done in Austria, Croatia, Finland, Romania, Switzerland, the UK and at the EU level.
