Developing creative thinking and problem solving skills

This output aims to foster students' digital problem-solving skills through innovative teaching methodologies. It will develop a Teaching Set/Curriculum to co-design activities that stimulate digital skills, analytical thinking, creativity, responsible decision-making, and innovation from an early age. Educators will be the main stakeholders engaged in this process, and students participating in pilot projects will be selected based on their teachers' involvement in redesigning didactic activities.

Elements of Innovation:

Teaching Set/Curriculum: The output will create an open online tool that educators across Europe can access. It will contain downloadable and searchable items, allowing educators to design classes aimed at fostering problem-solving skills. The curriculum will be continuously updated, incorporating case studies and innovative practices from various fields.

Expected Impact:

The output aims to shift the problem-solving model towards a more versatile meta-model that assists teachers and students in online environments. By promoting creative thinking and problem-solving skills, the curriculum aims to empower students to tackle challenges effectively in both their professional and everyday lives. Soft skills, such as cognitive, interpersonal, and practical skills, play a vital role in adapting to various situations and environments.

Transferability Potential:

The Teaching Set/Curriculum will act as a "Cookbook" with creativity recipes based on digital tools and innovative practices. It will be adaptable for different levels and types of schools, supporting educators in fostering transversal skills among their students. The online accessibility of the curriculum will facilitate its transferability across Europe, encouraging international discussion and the creation of a community of practice among educators.

In summary, the output focuses on cultivating digital problem-solving skills in students through an innovative Teaching Set/Curriculum.
