Introduction<\/b><\/p>\n

The project for Teacher Professionalization using Digital Technology to support Autonomy and Citizenship (PENSA) addresses two current issues <\/span>in higher education and society.<\/b> <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The first one is the <\/span>need for training and an infrastructure to deliver blended, online and\/or hybrid<\/b> (i.e. in-class teaching simultaneously streamed to online students) teaching during the pandemic<\/span>. <\/span><\/p>\n

The second issue is the need to <\/span>educate youngsters to the implications in the use of social networking websites<\/b> (Facebook, Youtube, etc.) at psychological, sociological, economical, and ideological levels.<\/span><\/p>\n

The PENSA project addresses these issues with an overall approach of openness, both in the direction of <\/span>open education<\/b> and <\/span>open source platforms.<\/b> <\/span><\/p>\n

Aims<\/b><\/p>\n

The main objective is to <\/span>provide Open Source training and tools to all teachers<\/b>. Those teachers will be trained to integrate blended and hybrid teaching in their classes, with the integration of telecollaboration and virtual exchange on topics related to digital citizenship. <\/span><\/p>\n

Through these actions, PENSA will involve 400 students across Europe in developing their digital competence, multilingual competence, collaborative skills, and learner autonomy.<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition to this main objective, four more objectives were added:<\/span><\/p>\n
