Sažetak

The SLIDE project aims to intertwine the service-learning (SL) pedagogy with digital empowerment (DE) to promote inclusion and diversity. SLIDE brings together students and academics from a wide range of European universities to draw on existing practices, share knowledge and develop best practices in and with the community whereby all become teaching resources, problem solvers, and partners. The overall purpose of SL is to instill a sense of civic engagement and responsibility in students and to motivate them to make positive social change, while the purpose of DE is to make an individual fit to the digital technology, placing that individual at the center of teaching and drawing upon his personal experiences to engage him.

The project meets 3 needs of contemporary education:
• to digitally empower university teachers who rapidly have to transform into learning experience designers and experts in emerging technologies;
• to close the gap between self-perceived and actual digital competences of university students by equipping them with skills and sensitizing them towards digital inclusion of underprivileged and underrepresented groups;
• to combine DE of teachers and students with SL, while establishing connections between higher education institutions and communities at risk, either in direct proximity or in remote areas.
