Turning university professors into competent learners (or how to interweave a new educational methodology with a tool for Lifelong Learning)

Abstract

This paper presents the results of a pre-pilot experiment offered in Bulgaria for teachers’ trainers who have to update their skills using ICT in teaching. The pre-pilot became a synergy of results of two European projects – the Leonardo Innovative Teacher (I*Teach) project and the FP6 TENCompetence project. The methodology for build-ing ICT-enhanced skills, developed in the frame of the I*Teach project, was applied for training teachers how to use ICT, using the provided by TENCompetence project tools and infrastructure.
