Schools, local administration, families and companies united to improve education through information and communication technologies.
In order to adapt education to the new social needs, meet the challenges of early school leaving and foster social inclusion of our citizens, the Educational Innovation Network of Viladecans was set up in 2013. The Network facilitates a space for collaboration between public administrations, schools, companies and families in order to set up innovative projects at the city’s schools.
The actions carried out have given rise to the technological renewal of classrooms (increasing the ratio of digital devices per student), training of teachers in strategies for rolling out innovative educational activities, the training of students and their families in the use of digital tools, while the link between schools and companies reinforces the transfer of learning activity.
The methodology used has allowed the reinforcement of co-responsibility, involvement and participation of the different members of the educational community and the neighborhoods.
Check out the Bank of Experiences for more details on the project.
