This level focuses on the basic literacy of the student with low or without qualifications, in order to improve their reading, writing, and math skills. It includes specific materials and contents for the development of basic skills, all of it through a technological perspective that develops critical analysis.
OBJECTIVES
The main objective of this first level of basic training is to pretend to serve as a means of employment for young people between 18 and 30 years old who have dropped out of school and find difficulties or barriers in accessing the labor market. The idea is simple: to offer young people who have been excluded from the educational system a training path and a framework for them to acquire self-confidence and acquire the basic skills necessary for their socio-labor insertion.
The objectives are compatible with the Early Childhood Education curriculum and promote the development of the key competencies necessary to access Secondary Education for adults, and the improvement of knowledge, skills and abilities that favor personal, work and social development.
The development of this training will allow you to acquire basic training, expand and renew your knowledge, and improve the skills related to linguistic communication, mathematical reasoning to solve daily life questions and technological knowledge as a basis for critical thinking.
STRUCTURE
The three levels of the course have the same format, a flexible structure adapted to the needs of the student, structured in the following sections:
- OBJECTIVES: the objectives to be worked on the level are listed, according to the 3 areas of learning.
- BASIC COMPETENCES: a series of key transversal competences are specified for each level, in order to motivate and develop the self-confidence and inclusion of users, as well as to foster critical thinking, essential to work in the field of science.
- METHODOLOGY: The proposed methodology promotes the inclusion of all students through collaborative and practical learning among equals, an essential pedagogical tool such as critical thinking, and the competence of learning to learn. It is about Micro-elearning: a proposal based on virtual learning and aimed at breaking-down didactic content through which certain skills are acquired. Learning in this way is generated in small pills (specific cases or examples) independent from the rest, but interconnected with them, forming a broader and deeper knowledge in the long term. It also allows it to be done in a short time, and can be carried out at any time and place through a digital device.
- CONTENTS: Selected from an analysis of previous knowledge, in order to configure a specific itinerary for the student. They are comprised of a large number of independent Didactic Units (DUs) that will develop specific competencies so they achieve the proposed objectives.
- EVALUATION AND CERTIFICATION: adapted to the previous knowledge of each student. Students who successfully complete the whole course will receive the digital badge “DIGITAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL TRAINING DIPLOMA”.
