The Free Libre Open Source Software culture: work, employment, and adult education
The Promote Open Source Technologies in Non-Formal Adult Education (Open-AE) project has created a space of discussion and cooperation between various training actors across Europe: Some with a significant experience on free, libre and open source software (FLOSS) culture, others with the desire to learn, all with the conviction that our perception and use of FLOSS needs to evolve. The result is a fruitful experience, that we are eager to share with you, in the following areas:
- FLOSS and adult education: Methods and tools tested, combined with specific learning approaches.
- FLOSS in the workplace: How do these methods and tools contribute to a digital work, well-being, including our current collaboration and communication practices.
- FLOSS, employment and employability: In the era of growing artificial intelligence and use of algorithms in recruitment, what is our citizen driven response. What type of skills and competences does FLOSS culture empower?
Join us for this new area of work and collaboration, let’s try and work together within new initiatives that will challenge and evolve our current knowledge in the area. REGISTRATION >>> https://bit.ly/ADW-Open-AE
