The Dean of the Faculty of Chemical Technology and Metallurgy of the Georgian Technical University, Professor Liana Targamadze, and the Head of the Technology and Grant Projects Office of the Georgian Technical University, Giorgi Mikiashvili, were on a working visit to the Kingdom of Sweden.
Georgian Technical University representatives participated in the joint international EDU-ABCM, EU-ZW, and EU-AGM meeting on the development of digital learning in green technologies and education held in Sweden. The international meeting on the development of digital learning in green technologies and education, supported by the European Union’s Erasmus+ program, was held at the leading higher education institutions of Sweden — Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan (KTH) and Mälardalens Universitet (MDU), as well as on the Stockholm-Turku ferry.
The project aims to contribute to the establishment of a global and modern higher education system in green technologies and ensure the exchange of experience, ideas, and innovative visions among partners.
“The meeting was an important stage in large-scale international cooperation in the development of digital educational resources, courses, and programs in green technologies and education. The project aims to create a modern, inclusive, and student-centered digital learning environment, which will further enhance the impact of Erasmus+ CBHE projects,” said the Head of the GTU Technology and Grant Projects Office.
According to the Dean of the GTU Faculty of Chemical Technology and Metallurgy, the Georgian Technical University has been appointed as the co-coordinator of the EU-AGM project, which is an important recognition of the university’s international reputation, professionalism, and high level of cooperation.
“It is important that within the framework of the project, it is planned to create a completely remote laboratory at the Georgian Technical University, which will significantly strengthen the opportunities for innovative learning for students and become one of the unique digital learning spaces in the region in the direction of green technologies. Leading universities from about 15 countries participated in the event. The meetings were held in an interactive and practice-oriented format, which ensured the active involvement of participants. Universities participated in the meeting within the framework of three Erasmus+ projects: EDU-ABCM — partners from Cameroon, Ethiopia, Mauritius, and Italy. EU-ZW — partners from Zimbabwe, Spain, and Sweden. EU-AGM — partners from Azerbaijan, Georgia, Moldova, Romania and Greece,” says Liana Targamadze.
The International Meeting on the Development of Digital Learning in Green Technologies and Education discussed many important issues, including creating learning modules, remote labs, cases and challenges using the QIP methodology; gender equality; visibility and information dissemination strategies, translation mechanisms; development of courses and micro-accreditations on the “EEDA Planner” and “EEDA OpenedX” platforms; best practices and innovative approaches; the “Flipped Classroom” teaching model; perspectives from industry representatives; sustainability and environmental responsibility.
