Programme

First part - Theory Skills and training models for knowledge society development • Learning psychology and learning psychology for adult people • Pedagogy and methodology for the education study • Knowledge construction Learning and training in the information society • Knowledge and training in the Society 4.0 • Competences and strategic competences • Lifelong learning and lifewide learning • Skills for the future works.

Second part – Theories and methods of training Training models and professional training • Training plan • Methodologies of training • Professional training • The whole cycle of a training project • The integrated project of training Third Part – Models and strategies for the training in the Society 4.0 Relationship between ICT and training • The influence of ICT in the training • E-learning • On-line training • Blended training Training and learning in the information society • Individual learning and collaborative learning in the web • The on-line training and the blended learning in the constructive theory • FabLab: training for the development of computational thinking and digital fabrication • Training for digital skills Goals of laboratory The laboratory activities start from some specific, fundamental theories in order to enable the students to perform training models through the moodle platform. The laboratory intends firstly to give the essential theories of the professional training in relation to sciences such as pedagogy, psychology, philosophy, sociology, epistemology and training methodology. Secondly, the laboratory carries out the strategies to get the training projects. The study of the models of the professional training is done in relation to some characteristics of the knowledge society, in particular in relation to the large diffusion of ICT and e-learning models of training. These concepts are also studied in relation to the evolution of the contemporary society towards Model 4.0. This model is characterized in terms of job and training by strong interconnection of elements and processes, by Internet of things, increased reality, robotics and artificial intelligence. The strategies and training practices should enable people to face the challenges of innovation, flexibility and rapid changes in the labor market. More specifically reference is done to the concepts of lifelong learning and lifewide learning, competence and strategic skills, the ability of learning and learning to learn, to e-learning, to on –line training and to the blended learning, to computational thinking and digital fabrication. The aim is to arrive at model of professional training as a set of tools by which to face the challenges of the Knowledge Society, namely as a set of flexible tools though which individuals can continuously adapt themselves to the changes taking place in their working and social environment.

Thanks to the course, students will be able to plain e-learning and blended learning training models

Type of delivery of the course

The laboratory activities start from some specific, fundamental theories in order to enable the students to perform training models through the moodle platform. Thanks to the course, students will be able to plain e-learning and blended learning training models. The laboratory intends firstly to give the essential theories of the professional training in relation to sciences such as pedagogy, psychology, philosophy, sociology, epistemology and training methodology. Secondly, the laboratory carries out the strategies to get the training projects. Students apply and experiment the theoretical models, studied during the course, in the construction of a realistic training project.
