This project focuses on building the capacity of Ukrainian universities by modernising and digitalising 24 foreign language (FL) curricula. In the context of the current geo-political challenges facing Ukraine, the development of an accessible digital learning environment is crucial. DigiFLEd aims to ensure the continuity and resilience of educational processes, thereby preserving and nurturing Ukraine's human capital for the future.
The target groups are FL students, university teaching staff and school teachers. The number of persons to benefit from the project is approximately 1400.
The project kickoff is scheduled for January 30 – February 1, 2024 in Tampere.
The kickoff will be followed by benchmarking visits of Ukrainian teams to the EU partner universities, Train-the-Trainers courses, development and piloting of seven ICT-enhanced courses for Ukrainian universities in collaboration with European peers, establishing a network of virtual resource centers, employer-networking events and a final conference.
The project received EU funding in the amount of 718 932.00 EUR.
