Objectives:
The objective of TRACEus
is to share recipes from kitchens in your country of origin in order to improve
digital learning for senior citizens. This innovative approach uses food
culture as a vehicle for mobile learning and social integration. Mobile
technology can be a tool for lifelong learning and facilitate intergenerational
communication.
Food and traditions, through cooking
recipes, preserve our cultural identities and will thus be preserved and
safeguarded for future generations, in order to develop new skills and improve
social cohesion.
Results:
The TRACEus
project is structured into 3 Intellectual Productions (IOs):
·
O1: Training in digital content creation: 30 participants (elderly/migrants)
will be trained to become authors of digital content in which they share
knowledge, skills and experiences.
·
O2: Innovative and interactive learning
platform (videos).
An enriched digital and multimedia learning content and an open
source database will enable the preservation of recipes, stories and
traditions from different countries.
·
O3: Testing/implementation: 110 older adults will be directly
involved in the project activities by testing and evaluating the material
developed.
