After an inspiring journey, the Cooperation in Education (CiE) Gateway project has officially come to an end. For 18 months, the project partners have worked a lot and achieve remarkable results.
To bridge the gap in educators' knowledge on educational cooperations, the project partners developed a comprehensive set of free resources. These materials aim to inspire, guide, and support educators in initiating and improving collaborations across disciplines and with external partners.
The key resources include:
- CiE Good Practice Collection: Features 32+ proven examples of collaborative education programmes across Europe. It covers intra-organisational, inter-organisational, and blended collaborations. It also showcases how cooperation enhances institutions, academic careers, student learning, and workforce readiness.
- CiE Analysis Report: Based on desk research, surveys with international students, and interviews with educators. It recommends top-down support, educator training, problem-based learning opportunities, and digital tools to foster successful collaboration.
- CiE Podcast Series: Features 10+ episodes exploring collaboration in education with expert insights and voices from different European institutions. It showcases best practices, tools, and real-world stories of collaboration between universities, industries, and external stakeholders.
- CiE Playbook & Toolkit: The Playbook is a detailed guide exploring collaboration types, benefits, innovative pedagogies, and real-world case studies, while the Toolkit offers practical tools, frameworks, and workshops to initiate and implement collaborative education initiatives.
- CiE Knowledge Gateway: An interactive online catalogue with curated resources on cooperation in education. It includes case studies, pedagogical insights, and practical tools. Its customisable filters help users find tailored support based on their collaboration needs.
These freely available resources introduce educators to the possibilities and impact of collaboration, providing essential guidance and tools to enhance cooperative teaching and learning, and ensuring the impact of the CiE Gateway project lives on.
The CiE Gateway initiative brought together educators and relevant stakeholders to tackle challenges in cooperation in education. The collaborative efforts of the team have resulted in valuable insights, practical tools, and a community of committed educators.
A heartfelt thanks goes out to everyone who contributed, supported, and followed the project. While the project has officially concluded, its spirit of collaboration lives on, inspiring further advancements in cooperation in education.
The collaboration does not stop!
