Month: January 2026

The Creative Technologies Learning Lab research team organised on January 27, 2026 a multiplier event for Erasmus+ project LET’s MIMIC which introduces biomimicry in learning. Biomimicry is an innovative design processs where solutions are inspired by the wisdom of natural models and processes. Project LET’s MIMIC has develop a digital learning platform for biomimicry and rich educational resources. During the event, approximately 30 students used the LET’s MIMIC digital learning platform to design solutions for improving quality of life in their hometown of Volos, particicularly related to climate change consequences, including natural disasters, such as the recently experienced floods and wildfires. Students designed solutions for water management, air pollution, adding greenery in the city, and reducing the use of cars. See more

Are you looking for an interesting intellectual activity for yourself or your loved ones? Computational Thinking is a great way to familiarize yourself with technology and improve your thought processes. You can find out more about the project and free tools here: https://computationalseniors.eu Let's be digitally brave!  #computationalseniors#adulteducation#ErasmusPlus#ActiveSenior#Education#DigitalWorld#LogicalThinking

What exactly is “Computational Thinking”? It's not just programming, it's a way of thinking that makes life easier in the digital world. Thanks to a project designed especially for seniors, anyone can learn how to: plan activities effectively, recognize important information from noise, deal with new applications and devices. Everything is presented in an accessible and user-friendly form. We encourage you to visit the project website:  https://computationalseniors.eu Share this post with your friends or loved ones who are seniors!  #ActiveSenior#Education#DigitalWorld#LogicalThinking#computationalseniors#adulteducation#ErasmusPlus 

Do you know that computational thinking is a skill of the future... available to everyone? Learning knows no age! The Computational Thinking for Seniors project proves that logical problem solving, breaking tasks down into their constituent parts, and recognizing patterns are great mental exercises for people of all ages. Why is it worth it? It improves memory and concentration. It helps you better understand modern technologies. It gives you tools to solve everyday problems more easily.

A mutliplier event was organised on January 14, 2026 for project LET's MIMIC (http://letsmimic.eu) with the participation of the Musical High School of Volos. LET's MIMIC was used with students who visited the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering on January 14, 2025, to participate in a workshop introducing nature-inspired solutions to improve quality of life. 30 students and their teachers designed Biomimicry solutions inspired by natural processes and models for addressing climate change challenges in their town of Volos. Students used the LET's MIMIC digital learning platform to collaborate in groups and present their innovative ideas to the class. A discussion followed in which students commented and helped improve each other's ideas. See more.

Great progress at today’s monthly EAIEN Project steering committee meeting! We are officially wrapping up WP2 and putting the final touches on our OER platform.We’re now shifting gears toward WP3, planning upcoming student mobilities in collaboration with our partner high schools and universities. Exciting things ahead! #EAIEN#EAIENProject#GreenSkills#OER#Innovation#Teamwork
