Disaster Resilience in Higher Education Systems via a Cloud University Model - (CLOUD-HED)

Projekta numurs: 2024-1-AT01-KA220-HED-000249632

Projekta koordinators RTA: Līga Danilāne

Projekta mērķis: CLOUD HED aims to provide HEIs operating under crisis conditions, particularly armed conflicts, with an evidence-based, whole-university solution to continue their T&L-operations. Core objective is to enhance the understanding of HE system challenges in crises, as well as to provide a whole-university concept, enabling HEIs to provide their education mission via a Cloud University Model. The concept involves innovative disaster-appropriate T&L-practices including the design of microcredentials.

Projekta anotācija un galvenie uzdevumi: The activities of CLOUD HED include the preparation of case studies and a needs analysis handbook of HE systems pre-, during and post-crisis situations, the CLOUD HED concept for a whole-university shift to a Cloud University model and the development of training materials for teaching staff in order to prepare them for teaching in a Cloud University under crisis conditions. This involves conveying transversal and resilience skills relevant to cloud learning and teaching under crisis conditions.

Projekta rezultāti: The main and deliverable results of CLOUD HED will be:

(1) a handbook collecting selected case studies of HE-systems under crisis, their needs and innovative solutions,

(2) adapted pilot-curricula for the shift to the cloud, including microcredentials,

(3) guidelines for HEIs’ emergency-induced transition towards a Cloud University,

(4) training materials for HEI- teachers, accessible via the CLOUD HED-website. A major outcome will be increased crisis resilience of (EU-) HEsystems.
