I-HE2020 Recognition of Prior Learning and Microcredentials
Download as PPTX, PDF0 likes149 views
This document summarizes information about the recognition of prior learning and microcredentials. It discusses three scenarios for evaluating MOOCs, criteria for evaluating stand-alone e-learning, and an Erasmus+ project called e-Valuate that developed guidance on recognizing e-learning. The project produced a practitioner's guide, position paper for e-learning providers, and student's guide. It also discusses that a common microcredentials framework ensures quality and transparency without requiring special recognition procedures if it fulfills the Lisbon Recognition Convention.
I-HE2020 Recognition of Prior Learning and Microcredentials
- 1. Recognition of Prior Learning and Microcredentials I·HE2020 Online Bridging Event, 29-10-2020 Bas Wegewijs Team Leader International Recognition
- 2. Recognition in the ENIC/NARIC networks • Lisbon Recognition Convention covers: - higher education qualifications; - access qualifications; - periods of study. • In case of non-formal learning: Recognition of Prior Learning
- 3. 2016 – 2018 Erasmus+ project New paradigms in recognition (PARADIGMS) In collaboration with partners from the Enic-Naric networks
- 4. Three scenarios for evaluation of MOOCs 1. MOOCs as part of a degree programme 2. MOOCs in addition to a traditional qualification 3. a collection of separate MOOCs 1 – Should be no problem! 2 – May add learning outcomes (in case of deficiencies) 3 – In principle not possible for ENIC-NARICs to assess as a whole (only the separate modules)
- 5. 1. Quality 2. Level 3. Learning outcomes 4. Workload 5. Verification 6. Testing 7. Identification Starting point: EAR-HEI manual Criteria for Evaluation of ‘stand alone’ e-learning
- 6. Erasmus+ project e-Valuate (2018-2020) Project team: NARICs, ECA, KIRON + Involvement of higher education resonance group Outcomes: 1. Practitioner’s guide for recognition of e-learning 2. Academic recognition of e-learning 3. Student’s guide to e-learning
- 7. Practitioner’s guide How to apply the 7 criteria for evaluating e-learning; How to recognize e-learning;
- 11. Position paper for providers of e-learning Refer to generally accepted Bologna tools Integrate stand-alone e-learning in internal and external QA
- 12. Student’s guide Extra document, co-written with ESU; How to select suitable online courses.
- 13. Common Microcredentials Framework Very useful definition of microcredential; Using Bologna tools to ensure quality and transparent information; Fulfills all requirements for smooth recognition (within scope of Lisbon Recognition Convention); NO SPECIAL RECOGNITION PROCEDURES NECESSARY!
