ПРОЕКТ TLIT4U – ИЗСЛЕДВАНЕ НА НАГЛАСИТЕ КЪМ ОБУЧЕНИЕТО ПО ТРАНСГРАМОТНОСТ НА СТУДЕНТИ И ПРЕПОДАВАТЕЛИ ОТ БЪЛГАРИЯ, ИТАЛИЯ И ФИНЛАНДИЯ
TLIT4U PROJECT – STUDY OF THE ATTITUDES TOWARDS TRANSLITERACY TRAINING AMONG STUDENTS AND UNIVERSITY TEACHERS FROM BULGARIA, ITALY AND FINLAND

Summary/Abstract: The TLIT4U project – Improving Transliteracy Skills through Serious Games, is implemented by ULSIT in partnership with the University of Parma (Italy), the University of Lapland (Finland) and the Foundation at the Polytechnic University of Milan (Italy). It focuses on cultivating and building a wide range of literacies (transliteracy) and identifies STE(A)M education and serious games as approaches to engage students through active participation, as well as to expand collaboration between educators and librarians. Transliteracy involves skills, thinking and actions based on digital fluency in a technological context. This concept steps on the knowledge and skills to be achieved for in-depth inquiry learning and creativity, as well as to avoid fake content. The aim of the first phase of the TLIT4U project is to clarify the STE(A)M framework for teaching transliteracy in humanities and science disciplines and to develop a game-based learning model. The partners organized seminars for Bulgarian, Italian and Finnish students from humanities and technical specialties. The workshops were based on an active participation approach and gathered the students' perceptions and suggestions about transliteracy education on three main points: 21st century skills, digital fluency, digital literacy. Interviews and focus groups were also conducted with educators from the three countries. The primary analysis of results from the initial phase of the project will be used to implement large-scale pedagogical models and frameworks for teaching transliteracy (media, information, visual, information literacy, etc.) with the STE(A)M approach to learning. This article presents key findings and open questions emerging from the TLIT4U comparative research.
