  1. Second Stakeholders’ Forum on EU cooperation in Education and Training2009 EUROPEAN YEAR OF CREATIVITY AND INNOVATIONReport of the workshopsFebruary 2009

  2. 5 Workshops 1. What do we understand by creativity and innovation in lifelong learning? How do qualification systems / assessment systems / … encourage creativity and innovation? 2. What do we, as LLL stakeholders, expect from this year? What is our role? What can we contribute? With whom can we cooperate? 3. What are your key messages as stakeholders to Member States and to EU institutions? 4. How to improve innovation and creativity into teaching and learning methods? Could you give us examples of good practices (examples of partnerships)? How to share them? 5. What do you think about the EC idea to develop indicators and a benchmark to address how education systems promote innovation and creativity, including entrepreneurship? Do you have suggestions?

  3. “Innovation is the ability to see change as an opportunity – not a threat” “Creativity requires the courage to let go of certainties”

  4. 1. What do we understand by Creativity and Innovation?

  5. 1. What do we understand by Creativity and Innovation? • Holistic person-centred approach People being able to take responsibility for their learning • New qualitative, informative assessment approach for formal and non-formal learning Peer review, external assessment, etc • Learning communities for both teachers and learners in mutual learning process

  6. 2.What do we, as LLL stakeholders, expect from this year? What is our role? What can we contribute? With whom can we cooperate? • Real involvement of all stakeholders: - Early stage consultation (even before the decision on topic of the year) - Transparency of the consultation and of the budget allocation and spending

  7. 2.What do we, as LLL stakeholders, expect from this year? What is our role? What can we contribute? With whom can we cooperate? • Concrete follow-up with stakeholders partnership Strategy: - One member state assuming the follow- up activities - Creating and sharing tools between stakeholders - Database of good practices • Ownership at the grassroots level - Government, a local government and institutions

  8. 3. What are your key messages as stakeholders to Member States and to EU institutions? • Look beyond schools and formal learning: rethink assessment • Look around regional, national and cross border (use what have been done) • Provide space for imagination (risk taking) • Connect schools, universities with society and employers. • Ensure that messages get to European citizens (use media)

  9. 4. How to improve IC into teaching and learning methods? • Basic Considerations/Obvious: • Innovation for its own sake is not beneficial. • It must be integrated into rules, objectives and cultures. • Innovation only makes sense if in line with organisational effectiveness.

  10. 4. How to improve IC into teaching and learning methods? • Challenges: • Cultural mistrust and linguistic barriers. • Territory rooted vision.

  11. 4. How to improve IC into teaching and learning methods? • Focus on end users’ and beneficiaries’ needs • Learning by sharing • Involve the learner in the learning process - giving space to imagination - responsibility - self-confidence - creativity and innovation

  12. 4. How to improve IC into teaching and learning methods? • Combination of methods - interdisciplinary • Teachers and trainers as facilitators - partnerships - allow risks

  13. 5. Indicators and a benchmark to address how education systems promote innovation and creativity The design of an innovation measurement system for the field of education and training can be useful. The three important conditions: A permanent consultation space where the community of LLL professionals can participate. A creative and innovative specific measurement system for the field of LLL keeping in mind the human aspect (example: to measure learner well being and involvement). Balance between quantitative and qualitative measurement.

  14. 5. Indicators and a benchmark to address how education systems promote innovation and creativity This would give us a chance: To quantify the effects of creativity and innovation. To stimulate debate between members of the business, research and policy-making communities as well as to provide a starting point for policy improvement and mutual learning.
