Erasmus+ project KA220-VET – Cooperation partnerships in vocational education and training “Vector world”
Graphic design is a profession that is constantly changing and evolving at a rapid pace, school systems are not so fast as to keep up with all these changes. These changes directly affect the labor market because graduates are expected to possess knowledge that is currently current and in demand. That is why innovations are needed in school systems that will keep graphic design in step with the times. Creating an international curriculum obtained by a detailed analysis of the curriculum and labor market in these countries preceded by a digital textbook that will be used as a methodological aid to teachers in teaching.
The aim of the project is to improve the teaching of professional subjects of graphic design adapted to the labor market in partner schools in Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia and Portugal.
The specific objectives are:
Detailed analysis of curricula for professional subjects of graphic design in these four countries, highlighting good practices and shortcomings in the effort to develop modern teaching.
Creating a digital textbook for the subject of graphic design that is adapted to the labor market and current software solutions.
Improving teachers’ knowledge and software skills.
Establishing a network between schools in order to cooperate and improve teaching.
The realization of this project will primarily contribute to a better understanding of the current situation in the teaching of this group subjects and point out the shortcomings of parts of the curriculum that need to be upgraded, updated and adapted to the labor market and current software used for work. The creation of a digital manual that has not existed in teaching so far in this content with video lessons will bring refreshment to the school system. This innovation will also have a positive impact on teachers who will improve their knowledge and skills, which they will pass on to future generations. We also expect that the analysis we conducted will affect other educational institutions in these countries in the systemic changes of plans and programs.
With this project, we expect to achieve a continuation of the network of partnerships with future partners, which will cooperate in the future and after the completion in the improvement of teaching and cultural events. And as the most important result of this project that we expect is the improvement of students’ knowledge and the availability of textbooks that they will use in teaching.”
