Flexible open learning pathways mapping (D3.3)
Abstract
This document reports on task T3.3, titled ‘Designing flexible, equitable open learning pathways for informing, engaging, upskilling and reskilling stakeholders.’ It details the project's approach to identifying knowledge gaps and the process for determining pathways, ensuring the central themes of equity and flexibility are addressed. Accessibility is a key element of this work and is central to the design of the Every1 website and pathways tool. This report explains the use of learning design techniques, the transition from academic learning levels to 'circles of influence' to ensure equity, and the final mixed pathways approach, which combines curated pathways, bitesize learning, and bespoke filtering tools for stakeholders.
Introduction
In the EU, the energy transition demands active participation from diverse stakeholders, requiring new skills and knowledge to navigate the rapidly evolving landscape. The Every1 project addresses this crucial need by designing flexible, equitable open learning pathways for informing, engaging, upskilling, and reskilling stakeholders involved in the adoption of digital technologies and energy flexibility products and services. The Every1 Project is designed to deliver a lasting and impactful capacity-building program. At its heart are flexible learning pathways, which move beyond a ‘one-size-fits-all’ model to empower diverse stakeholders across the energy transition landscape. These pathways serve as a critical instrument for enhancing individual capabilities and shaping a just, sustainable energy landscape for all.
''The Every1 project is explicitly designed around a collaborative, democratic model, where stakeholder feedback is sought and acted upon regularly. Co-creation is therefore central to the project's methodology, ensuring that the resulting learning materials and pathways reflect the needs, perspectives, and experiences of organisations and their end-users''.
