“Implementation of Interactivity and multimedia-based content using Multiple Devices in Adult Education” – (InterMedia) project has been approved by the National Agency of Austria.

The world today is digital. In trainings, various types of digital devices are used. This includes desktop PCs, laptops, notebooks, Chromebooks, tablets, convertibles and smartphones. We call them “Multiple Devices”. They enable the use of technology enhanced trainings with an implementation of multimedia-based and interactive (M&I) training materials. This sounds simple – the problem is the delivery of content so that it is displayed (and can be used by the trainees) on all types of devices. Another issue (in this context) is the creating of high-quality multimedia-based and interactive (M&I) content – especially in smaller Adult Education organizations.

The project serves to exchange experiences and to develop digital skills, especially in the multimedia area within the staff of the participating organizations. Furthermore, the development and use of M&I learning materials should be worked out together, brought into context with multiple devices and developed in a comprehensive documentation.

A special focus is put on methodology and approaches to support seniors in this digital-oriented learning and trainings. Furthermore, the organizations will use the gained experience and knowledge to promote Erasmus+ programs – and in this sense especially courses – to all generations in their home countries.

The project aims to increase the knowledge and skills in the participating organizations to create and use M&I content, with particular attention to multiple devices and a specific focus to seniors.
