2. Workshop title: ICT in the process of developing learning to learn competences in lifelong learning transitions: from theory into the practice

3. Structure of the F2F workshop Plenary:introduction, explanation of L2L competences, firstprojectresults Groups:eachgroupdiscuss 3 differentcases/approaches Plenary:presentation of outcomes Groups:eachgroupdevelop/share 3 newapproaches Plenary:presentation of outcomes Plenary: „How to guide”: discussion Conclusions

4. I learn to learn… I like to learn… eLene2Learn eLene2learn forms a multi-stakeholder network, exploring and promoting the contribution of ICT and digital media in supporting the development of learning to learn competencies in lifelong learning transitions. 9 European partners and their national Focus Groups (HE/SE teachers + students) Project duration 2012-2014 http://www.elene2learn.eu/

5. Whythistopic? 1 Challenges in transitions of lifelonglearning • adapting to new physical & virtualenvironments • differentteaching and learningapproaches • learning to live, learn and workwithin new communities Transitionfrom SE to HE • studentsfeellost in HE > uneffectivelearning • studentslacklearning to learncompetencesnecessary in HE • highdropoutrates of early HE years

6. Whythistopic? 2 • Effective learning to learn competences help learners to deal with transitions more effectively. • Social networks, digital media, serious games, virtual worlds, ePortfolio and blogs • may support development of learning to learn competences. • If the same approaches/tools are used throughout SE and HE the transition phase may be easier for students and more effective in terms of learning.

7. Learning to learncompetences self-regulation self-assessment self-management thinking, problem-solving and decision making ability to handle obstacles and change being creative communication (reading and writing) working with others motivation and confidence etc.
