Agile Learning Design Toolbox 

Our project offers a dynamic digital toolkit tailored for diverse educational needs, embracing self-directed agile practices in pilot programs. This toolkit provides educators, learners (school/university students), and facilitators with precise guidelines for co-creating collaborative educational processes.

Our innovation lies in merging educational and social contexts, fostering enduring collaborative cultures across boundaries. By empowering learners to co-design their learning experiences, we break away from isolated approaches, reconnecting schools with broader societal dynamics. The potential for transferability is vast.

Our work emphasises the collective nature of creativity and intelligence, equipping educators and learners to apply these skills beyond educational settings—as artists, citizens, entrepreneurs, innovators, policy makers, and professionals.
