Official Release of the DPCT CCS Guidelines

Recently, in the framework of KA2 “Digital Push For Creative Transformation”, we have released the first intellectual output, namely the “Digital Competences for CCS guidelines” (IO1.3).

The “Digital Competences for CCS guidelines” outlines the theoretical framework that will be used to develop the DPCT MOOC courses, integrating the results of the two researches carried out by the partner consortium in IO1.1 and IO1.2, namely the “Conceptual Framework for Digital Competences for CCS” and the “DPCT Survey Report for young people working in cultural and creative sectors (CCS)”.

From one hand, the “Conceptual Framework for Digital Competences for CCS” aimed at sharing research materials and reflections on the development of Digital Competences in CCS for the promotion of transversal skills and social inclusion. This document emphasized the problems related to the development of digital resources and their integration into various cultural environments and in the CCS education area. The research aimed to identify the digital competences most promoted in CCS youth education contexts and to consolidate the theoretical basis of the DPCT project. Moreover, together with the findings of IO1.2, it will help the project consortium to select the content and digital competences to be promoted in the project online MOOC courses.

On the other hand, the “DPCT Survey Report for young people working in cultural and creative sectors (CCS)” aimed to present the results of the research phase of the KA2 project “Digital Push for Creative Transformation”. An online questionnaire survey was launched in the five project partner countries which aimed to define the most required digital skills for young people with low digital skills working in CCS as well as the most effective teaching and learning tools and methods for young people digital skills and transverse skills promotion. The survey was filled out by a total of 312 young people across the five partner countries, namely Latvia, Poland, Italy, Bulgaria and Spain, from June 20th, 2021 to August 15th, 2021.

Finally, the present document “Digital Competences for CCS guidelines” will aim to summarize the findings of the two previous researches, outlining the digital competences more relevant to the CCS, the skills needed at different work levels and cultural areas as well as the most promising pedagogical and technology-enhanced learning concepts, approaches and methods in achieving better digital skills for CCS young people that should be addressed by the DPCT MOOC, according to the specific participants needs.
