How canthe EMIC Knowledge Triangle improve graduate employability?
The EMIC Knowledge Triangle consists of: • Research • Education • Innovation
The main objective of the EMIC project is to achieve transformation towards a knowledge society where: • Education has intrinsic value, it’s not just a tool • Education is questioning, not answering • Education is comprehension, not competencies • Education is active creation, not passive application • Interdisciplinary barriers are overcome • Self aware individuals know what they want to learn • Enterprises can find necessary employees • Unemployment rate among graduates diminishes
This project is a collaboration among 7 European countries and 9 educational institutions.
EMIC consists of 5 sections: • Observatory • Community ofPractice • E-Learning • Local MIC Support • Student Support
Vidzeme University of Applied Sciences has taken the lead in e-learning to facilitate the development of one common video course on marketing & innovation
Each educational institution chooses their most experienced marketing and innovation teachers to feature in the e-learning videos.
Vidzeme University of Applied Sciences has chosen its teachers from our new international study module Autumn semester entitled ‘’Through Famous Gateways to Unexploded Getaways’’ Spring semester entitled ‘’ From Globalization to Regionalization’’
EMIC project is innovative because: This is a new experience where Europe's best marketing and innovation teachers work together to create one common international e-learning course. So far, marketing and innovation intervention has been neglected. This is a new way to look at the market.
We use the latest audio visual tools as key enablers to deliver this innovative way of learning: • Communities of practice • E-courses • Virtual platform for communication • EMIC blog • Social networks • Video-conferencing
Funding: Erasmus Multilateral projects – Life Long Learning programme – EU grant
The EMIC Knowledge triangle can be transferred to any other country or region.
The EMIC project is currently work in progress.First e-learning material will be completed by the end of March 2013.Conclusions will be drawn in October 2013.
