Result 4: Digital learning materials
Digital training materials were developed, based on the concepts and curricula of R1-R3. The software Articulate was used to create non-linear, scenario-based gamified e-learnings. The digital training materials are fully responsive and the design takes into account the needs of the target group (seniors) and respect highest barrier-free standards. The digital training is based in blended learning methodology.
Result 5: SEN4CE Digital environment
The SEN4CE digital environment is the primary sharing and promotion tool for the digital training courses. Special attention is given to the design and visual identity to respect the needs of the target group seniors (easy access/barrier free). Instead of developing “yet another platform”, the aim is to create the highest possible compatibility with existing platforms.
