About
Lab work is a key aspect of scientific education and students can seldom access public and private labs of excellence. While several Erasmus+ projects and national initiatives have focused on digital L&T, our project is innovative in addressing a pedagogical framework (RIALHE)for lab training as a particular field . Student involvement in research processes is a key priority in strengthening synergies between research and education. Using digital tools will increase the access and quality of scientific education linked to lab experiments. There is a gap between the functional aspects of the productive world and the lectures given to students during higher education.
RIALHE Objectives
The objectives are linked to the most relevant priority, i.e. stimulating innovative learning and practices in that new developments involving building new learning experiences have a lot of benefits. Innovative learning and teaching practices facilitate the comprehension of complicated concepts.
Objective #1
Improve both the quality and relevance of Higher Education laboratory activities for all partners by providing remote access to state of the art laboratory environments and by opening up to new actors, not normally involved in the educational paths.
Objective #2
Increase partners’ capacity to operate jointly at a transnational level creating and developing synergies through the establishment of a common framework that uses participatory approaches and digital methodologies.
Objective #3
Boost the internationalisation of the partners’ activities, through exchanging and developing new practices and methods, and through sharing and confronting ideas.
Expected Results
We expect to reach the following concrete results:
1 The definition and design of high-level robust procedures and guidelines to be transferred to the teaching of innovative laboratory experiments.
2 The implementation of student active pedagogical activities using technological platforms.
3 Increased understanding of Remote Lab use and student learning through the analysis of data about learners and their learning contexts.
4 Dissemination through relevant channels (e.g., website, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.)
RIALHE enhances learning policy by improving higher education facilities and providing access to scientific expertise. It aligns with national goals by improving lab activities and virtual experiences, fostering international collaboration, and promoting active learning, cooperation, and expertise sharing in line with Norwegian educational schemes.
