Summary: | The aim of the project Learners as Co-creators of Their Own Learning (LeCoLe) is to explore the experiences and best practices of partner countries supporting the active engagement of learners. The project also aims to explore how students become co-creators of their own learning and the process involved in that including, but not limited to, the planning, implementation, and evaluation of collaborative projects. To achieve that goal the first objective was to carry out desk research for context mapping. The desk research and context mapping, via questionnaire, provided a place to identify examples of learner engagement in the co-creation of their own learning in each partner country. The topic of co-creation and how it is represented in each country was explored on national, regional, local, regulatory and practical level to provide a depth of understanding of each countries co-creation ecosystem and to find out what the obstacles are to engaging learners. There are 6 partners from 5 countries involved in the project: • National Centre for Education, Latvia (lead partner) www.visc.gov.lv, • Education Development Center (Latvia) www.iac.edu.lv, • European Education & Learning Institute (Greece) eeli.edu.gr, • Ministerio da Educacao e Siencia (DGAE) (Portugal) www.portugal.gov.pt, • Marino Institute of Education (Ireland) www.mie.ie, • University of Iceland (Haskoli Islands) www.hi.is. All partners were engaged in the data collection process, provided comments, gathered data and developed this document.
