Mobile Technologies in Vocational Teaching and Education

The partnership aims to exploit the use of new mobile device technology for vocational training. The teachers from all partner schools, together with their students intend to collaborate in creating learning objects for distribution onto mobile devices (specifically mp4 players). These learning objects will cover a wide range of vocational topics according to the profile and curriculum of a particular school. Consequently, the subjects included in the project work will be as following: Tourism, Informatics, Landscape Designing, Art and Architecture, Building Engineering, Biology, Economics, English and Business Education. A key element in the realisation of the undertaken tasks will be the exchange of experience and knowledge among the group members. The first stage of the partnership will be the undertaking of some primary research to explore how learners are using this technology. We then intend to provide very specific training for teachers in creating these learning objects as well as evaluating a suitable distribution method (portal) for delivery. The next stage of the project will involve students from all of the partner institutions working together to produce learning materials on a single project with the opportunity to concentrate on specific areas that interest them. The final stage involves producing a podcasting toolkit.
