The virtual working space brought to you by the Shaping Digital Classes Erasmus+ Partnership is aimed at increasing your digital skills and pedagogic competences in 4 areas: Digital Resources, Teaching and Learning, Assessment and Empowering Learners. Competences addressed in the online training are based on the European Framework for the Digital Competence of Educators (DigCompEdu), which in total consists of 22 competences organised in 6 areas.
Shaping Digital Classes has developed 3 courses.
Course 1 – Digital Skills for Trainers – Awareness Level
With the participation in this course trainers will:
– be guided through the DigCompEdu Framework and its 4 core areas;
– gain awareness on the need to reflect on advantages of digital pedagogy classes;
– be motivated to visualize existing digital gaps in their current digital competences and the advantages of creating and using digital solutions in their heterogeneous groups;
– check the individual digital competence level by taking the self-reflection within each course step and continue training on the platform (course 2 or course 3).
Course 2 – Digital Skills for Trainers – Beginner Level
With the participation in this course trainers will:
– select, use, assess and engage learners using digital tools;
– improve their digital skills to the level of Explorers (A2);
– feel confident in the implementation of digital pedagogic strategies at the level of A2.
Course 3 – Digital Skills for Trainers – Intermediate Level
With the participation in this course trainers will:
– select, use, assess and engage learners using digital tools;
– improve their digital skills to the level of integrators (B1), being able to create their own new digital materials;

Each topic compromises of a video tutorial and supporting material, including a description, step-by-step instructions for trainers, quiz, suggested activity for your classroom, recommendation of other tools, follow-on pathway for further exploration of digital tools and a checklist for the tutorial.
