To achieve these objectives, we will explore subjects together and share ideas on teaching methods and topics about these people´ future learning needs and difficulties in ICT and E-working learning. The methodology will be based on surveys (opinion polls) to be performed by both students and by teachers. Moreover, participants exchange visits will be organized and will enable the teachers/researchers to experience other teaching techniques and practices. But central to this project is the fact that the students themselves are welcome to play an active role in the development of this project by cooperating to achieve the project goals by nourishing our conception of the state of the art. For this purpose, they will contribute by elaborating together with the teachers some of the contents of the website designed as a result of the project.
 PHASE 1: PERCEPTION ANALYSIS (Academic Year 2009/2010).This cover the following two relevant topics related to ICT and E-working learning for the target group: (1) Main Interests and (2) best methodological approaches. The first phase of the project is devoted to develop an organised specific analysis in each of the partner organisations of the perception that these people have nowadays about the relevance of ICT and E-working in their lives and about the way in which ICT can improve their quality of life and professional skills. To achieve that, we are designing questionnaires and opinion polls. The visits in phase 1 will enable us to know the defining features and to find out the reality of the partner organisations, as well as to establish the first personal contacts among teachers and students from each organisation.
PHASE 2: PERFORMING RESULTS AND IMPROVEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS (Academic Year 2010/2011).
At the beginning of this phase, questionnaires are designed with the cooperation of an expert pool and sent to all organisations involved in the partnership in order to assess how the project is working. The results are analysed and improvement measurements as feedback resource are performed if necessary.
Once the main interests for these people have been identified and the conditions, resources and methodologies for dealing with ICT and E-work learning programmes in the partner institutions have been assessed, in the next phase we focus on sharing didactic-methodological experiences of all the partner institutions. In a following step, the partners would exchange and implement best practices in helping these people to use ICT and computers for communication and for improving their professional skills. We also evaluate the results by questionnaires. At the end of this phase, we would focus specially in producing all kind of literature related to the project: studies, evaluation report, recommendations, etc., in order to make them widely accessible by means of the own website of the project, including also the contents elaborated by the student/trainees involved in the partnership.
