Towards the next mobility in Lousada: results achieved and steps to be taken to create the M.O.T.H.E.R. Social Platform for Business

In this article we will take a closer look at the progress made so far in the creation of so-called training modules, which by February will be transformed into real courses on the M.O.T.H.E.R. Social Platform for Business of Youths e-learning platform.

The training modules have been created by authoritative ‘authors’ who may be qualified as trainers or who have a relevant professional role. All the various profiles of the course authors will be placed on the e-learning platform.

Each expert/trainer has already prepared a ppt presentation and extensive additional reading and learning material (+ reference links) that will further stimulate future learners towards a comprehensive knowledge of the specific topic.

Furthermore, an introductory video will be available in which each course will be briefly explained in order to clarify the learning objectives and expected outcomes.

The final goal is to transform (by February 2022) all this learning material into various interactive and dynamic courses through the use of a specific platform (Prezi) usable by all partners (through a common account).

In this regard, Pietro Sinopoli, from the Jump Team, a new professional young employee with important digital skills has created a word document that serves as a guide for the creation of interactive courses.

All partners are strongly encouraged to read this document.

All these aspects will be further explored during the Learning Mobility Training in Lousada – 10-15 January 2021, which will bring together all future e-coaches from the various teams.

Other news: Ms. Alessia Simonetti has been identified as the highly qualified professional figure who will act as trainer for the e-coaches in Portugal in January.

She is also already working on the creation of a new training module (and thus a new interactive course).

It is important to underline that e-coaches play an important role because they are the people who contact and physically meet the users inside the Jump Academy, create the online meeting and matching with other users. They accompany registered students on the platform, informing them about the correct use of the platform and providing all other information about the free courses available.

E-coaches can and should also help users to connect online and explain topics and learning outcomes to them.

They therefore represent a concrete support to all those young people who feel the need to be trained on innovative topics and above all to be able to express and share their full potential in the presence of other peers.
