Sažetak predavanja:

The rapid pace of societal change and the increasing demand for education have propelled a new era of digital transformation. In response, educational processes are undergoing a significant shift, embracing the use of digital technology and harnessing the potential of open education to foster greater flexibility, accessibility, and sustainability. The focus of presentation is on the transformative power of the Leadership in Open Education (LOE), a master's program offered in partnership with the UNESCO chair on Open Technologies  for Open Educational Resources and Open Learning at the Jožef Stefan Institute as an upgrade of OE4BW online mentoring program.

This program equips students with the knowledge, skills, and leadership competencies needed to navigate the evolving landscape of open education. By leveraging the diverse perspectives and experiences gained during study, future education leaders can expand their horizons and contribute to the global open education community. The Leadership in Open Education Master's Program is strategically designed to empower educators with the tools and strategies necessary to harness the potential of open education. By integrating digital technologies, open educational resources, and innovative teaching practices, the program enables participants to create impactful learning experiences and drive positive change in education.

Join us in exploring the journey of expanding horizons through the Erasmus Staff Mobility Program, as we delve into the empowering Leadership in Open Education Master's Program. Together, we can embrace the transformative power of open education and shape a more inclusive and sustainable future.
