SUMMARY

• Plastic industry - a half-branch between technical and chemical industry

• Technological process = injection moulding

• No education realised in SR + no future plans- Educational material does not reach the level of didactical composed

text with new innovative methods or content (e-learning,optimalisation)

- A need of solving this situation by transferring educational material from countries where educational programmes in plastic processing

have a long-term experience and tradition

• Partnership- formed by 7 organizations from four countries (FR, SI, CZ, SK)- partners are public bodies, associations, and representatives of educational organizations


MAIN AIM

To increase the quality of further education in field of plastic processing by technology called injection moulding

Educational products from project partners:

P1 – France – ISPA: educational curriculum in injection moulding

P2 – Czech Republic – MAPRO: innovative content and trainings in field of optimalisation of injection moulding process - guide for plastic processing and lectors and trainings of lectors

P6 – Slovenia – TECOS: innovative ICT-based content in plastic industry –e-learning as content and form


OBJECTIVES

1. To increase the quality of specialised education in this field in SR through innovated educational material and curriculum

2. To increase the quality of specialised education in this field in SR through transfer of the Guide for plastic processing

3. To introduce new technologies to specialised technical education through application of e-learning method in teaching process


TARGET GROUPS

A) Setupers, technologists and maintainers in injection moulding

B) Teachers and trainers in injection moulding

60 participants of testing who will successfully complete the modular educational program – also with the theoretical and practical examination

6 schooled trainers teaching by innovated educational program


MAIN PROJECT ACTIVITIES

1. To create educational program fulfilling all levels of further education for adults in field of injection moulding (the basis, training, self-solving problems in praxis, process optimalisation) through provided educational modules (the content), method, and curriculum from project partners.

2. To test and adapt the educational material to conditions of Slovak system of vocational education.

3. To integrate the innovated content, method and curriculum to existing program in SR.

4. To extend, disseminate and commercialize products after project termination.


WORKPACKAGES RESULTS

TESTING

Tools used in testing of transferred materials:

Comprehensive checks – questions from particular modules + practical tasks

Feedback questionnaires after graduation of each course in modules – detecting quality of educational process, quality of lectors, educational materials, methods and forms


OUTCOMES

DIRECT:

• Innovated modular educational program for learners in injection moulding• Innovated educational material including e-learning• Evaluation system of educational program

INDIRECT:

• Increase of quality of education for companies from which the participants will come from

• Maintenance of specialized work positions in companies involved in educational program - during the project realization not reducing the staff from specialized work positions
