The final discussion of the ER will take place in every National context for all trainers. One trainer
will participate at International Discussion in Crete. Two trainers will participate at the Final
Conference.
4. HOW ARE THE FIVE PHASES CONNECTED?
Considering a learning paradigm based on reflection on action and further connections to theory, this
phases are tightly connected: there is interdependency among their results.
SHARING: Educational Resource
ELABORATION …
CONTEXTUALIZE/DESIGN…
brings together the original idea
provides a framework of THE ALPP and practices, and build on to
planning and scheme for IMPLEMENTATION/ generate new concepts,
practice on the field (ALPP EVALUATION… approaches, policy
implementation) recommendations
provides fundamental
experience that is the
base for conceptual
elaboration

5. HOW IS THE SUPPORT TO TRAINERS
ORGANIZED DURING THE 5 PHASES?
ONLINE LEARNING PATH: TRAINERS will be engaged in self-
assisted online sessions, aimed at supporting continuing adjustments,
improvements and discussion on the Learning Design.
This activity lasts 50h (online), from March to end of May
TRAINING ACTIVITY IN PRESENCE: discussion and
support for local implementation. The trainers will
hence identify the most appropriate structure for the
effective implementation on the field.
This activity lasts 50h (on site and personalized study)

9. Tools to represent your Adults
Learning Session
Instructions
Complete the Template A as written exercise for your Learning
Design
Adopt the Template B to represent your participatory evaluation
session
Adopt the Template C (ILAP-ALPP-MAP) to present your ALPP
Learning Design
Template D is the pedagogical pattern you can follow to present the
final result of your piloting (in the case you do) The several MAPS
produced are integrated in the Pedagogical Pattern proposed to
«package» your proposal and experience of Adults Learning Pilot
Programmes.
Adopt the Template E to present your ALPP Results
11. The narrative design
The richness of the narrative express the problem, the way in
which we are engaged and the way in which we, as
educators and protagonists, could change that situation.
Write freely, from your own situated (and very subjective!)
perspective
What?/What for?: The educational problem
Who?: Who are the learners
Where?/ When?: Which is the social and cultural context
How?: Which is your educational proposal
What if?: Which are the forces that could weaken your strategy
12. The force map
A Force Map is a graphical representation of the context of a
design challenge.
It includes iconic representations of the key elements in this
context (social, material and intentional factors), and lines
noting the relationships between them.
These relationships are marked "+" when supportive, and "-"
when indicating a tension.
The design challenge can often be defined in terms of
resolving some of these tensions
Consider the sam elements than for design narrative
15. The Four Leaf Taxonomy ®
Umberto Margiotta, 2006
ILAP is an instrumental
framework that aims to support
effective learning.
Personalization Information The ILAP framework is
composed by four phases where
the learner is engaged in different
activities. These are supposed to
promote specific learning
outcomes and hence shape
specific competences
• The four phases are:
INFORMATION: See, Listen,
Read, Explore
LAB: Discuss, Reflect, Try, Do
ASSESSMENT: Check your
knowledge and skills
Assessment Lab
PERSONALIZATION: Make your
learning useful for your
personal/professional purposes
16. Designing for Learning adopting
ILAP
The pedagogical process is divided into sequences
where the learner is expected to reach learning goals
that support the achievement of competences.
Every fase encompass:
Educators specific Activities
Learners specific Activities
Resources for Learning
This framework has been validated in several adults’
education, educators education and eLearning projects. It
has also been adopted in secondary education.
17. FIRST PHASE: information
This first step is characterized by the following activities:
The educator The Learner:
Contextualization of the training path (why are
we here?); Understanding Education
Contents presentation (what are we going to goals, setting and activities.
do?);
Achieving crucial informations about
Introduction of the ALPP(*) learning goals (what the educational project
could we get with this session?);
Timing of the work programme (How long?); Considering first contents
Arrangement of a short summary/brochure to Getting to know the educator/the
introduce the ALPP contents; colleagues
Provision and linkage to specific TERMS in
order to promote reflection and understanding of Jumping into the learning
experience / Understanding
key ideas;
Its importance lies on…
It represents a first important approach to the content meaning;
It outlines the sense of the training path and its complexity;
It introduces a clear idea of the roadmap to be followed and of the practices that characterize the
participation.
The Adult Learning Pilot Programmes. These are composed by 6 sessions. The ILAP can be applied at different levels
of granularity, but it is conceived mostly for the single session or pedagogical sequence
18. Second PHASE: LABORATORY
The laboratory is designed to improve social interaction.
The educator The Learner:
Introduce Practical activities: the Creative
Language (*) Analyzes activities and start transferring
Design key questions knowledge into practice
Open discussions Explores and reflect about the topic
Guide practices and reflections
Discusses, analyzes, criticizes, jointly with
the educator and colleagues, in a growing
Make conclusions on the ongoing learning community
discussion/activities Reinforces the learning space as a space
Support learners in presenting the results of of dialogue with diversity
the own hands-on activities
Its importance lies on…
It creates opportunities for practical understanding of an issue
It support peer learning;
It generates room for significant learning through reflection (meta-cognitive and emotional
processes)
It opens the learning process to the social construction of knowledge.
The Creative Language in the context of ALICE project is an artistic or playful language that supports dialogue
between adults and children.
19. Third PHASE:
ASSESSMENT/EVALUATION
Assessment includes three significant learning activities…and it is a learning activity
itself!
The educator The Learner:
Assess Knowledge (Contents of Learning Gets feed-back/Metalearn
or Declarative Knowledge); Evaluates together with the educator
knowledge, skills, feelings, as
Assess Skills (Rules of Problem Solving or achievements of learning experience
Procedural Knowledge); Understands the own learning strategies
Accompany reflection processes Participates in a general evaluation of
learning activities and educator’s
(Metacognition, Reflection on feelings) performance in order to address new
activities
Its importance lies on…
The way in which the reflection can:
lead to recognize the key learning outcomes; provide quality adjustments;
Or to set up new scenarios for action
20. Fourth PHASE:
PERSONALIZATION/IMPACT
Now ensure that the learning experience pertains to the learner
The educator The Learner:
Provision of new resources if required by Achieves/transfers
the learners; Considers experiences you can generate
with learned lessons within the course
Suggestion of alternative educational
Considers herself with regard to the
paths;
generation of knowledge within the field of
Setting up of additional documents and study/activity
training material. Analyzes future learning activities
Its importance lies on…
The possibility of really moving the experience from a teaching centered to a learning centered
approach.

23. Tools for the Adults’ Educator
Implementing the ALPP
In collaboration with Raluca Icleanu (SREP)
24. Implementing for quality and
effectiveness
Remember your original strategy but do not be blocked by it
Adopt supports to monitor your participants reactions:
Levels of participation
Critical incidents allow you to think that you should change
something
Informal Conversations with responsibles and with participants
A check-list of things that would be desiderable to implement
during the sessions
Share your Learning Design and your ideas with a critical
colleague; learn from the suggestions
25. Implementing for and through
networking: impact at local level
Focus the opportunities the institutions engaged in adults’
learning offer, as well as their goals: understand their
trajectories and their needs
Cluster your project:
Learn about other projects doing the same/similar activity than
yours
Communicate/share your activity with the other «brother
projects»
Organize forms of communication to make your activities
visible: radio, blog post during activities, brief seminars, etc
A check-list of things that would be desiderable to implement as
complementary «networking» activity while you run your sessions
26. Tools for the Adults’ Educator
Evaluating the ALPP
In collaboration with Isabella Rega (SEED)
27. Participatory Evaluation: Why?
Understanding Template B
The project attempts to raise awareness, through
participation and engagement, on the impact of the
project’s approach:
Adults as Educators are a key for the Lifelong Learning
society
Adults can improve their skills to support children, having
impact on their own Key Competences for Lifelong
Learning
Creative Languages can help adults to better support
children, generating intergenerational creative learning
experiences
How to evaluate this?
