Welcome to the INFOGRAFIA project. What is the INFOGRAFIA project? INFOGRAFIA is an innovative project that addresses the needs of the next generation of entrepreneurs!

A growing concern for young people is ensuring that they are equipped with the necessary competencies for the modern world of work. The INFOGRAFIA project wants to eliminate this concern by offering educational resources and tools that keep pace with the digital and social media habits of young people today. This works to address how they contribute to learning, both in education and personal development.

The INFOGRAFIA project provides a full suite of innovative interactive infographics that addresses 3 key themes in entrepreneurship training.

  • Into Action
  • Resources & Ideas
  • Opportunities

 

INFOGRAFIA offers a suite of infographics, training programmes and an online portal that features a range of learning resources that support young people and youth workers. In order to support young digital natives to develop their entrepreneurial spirit, youth workers must first upskill in the areas of digital and media literacy to facilitate educational intervention for young people.

With this, INFOGRAFIA aims to build the competencies of young people to maximise their potential and opportunities for entrepreneurial actions in today’s labour market. The development of resources in the INFOGRAFIA project work to empower young people with the building of key entrepreneurial skills that will motivate and inspire them.

The INFOGRAFIA project – Using Interactive Infographics to Build Entrepreneurial Competences addresses the importance of young people unlocking their full potential! It promotes creativity, innovation, risk-taking and goal setting for youths, encouraging them to develop entrepreneurial mindsets.

The INFOGRAFIA project promotes entrepreneurship which is a driving force for job creation, competitiveness, and personal growth for young people. INFOGRAFIA will work to develop a redefined entrepreneurship curriculum using Interactive Infographics as a completely new learning medium that young people can easily access and engage with.

To achieve these objectives, the INFOGRAFIA partners are collaborating together throughout the term of the project to produce the following innovative learning materials:

IO1 - Toolkit- Compendium of Interactive Infographic Entrepreneurship Resources

A toolkit of a suite of interactive infographics provides young people with educational resources on the topic of entrepreneurship, that are accessible, approachable, and understandable. Each infographic features an interactive suite of learning materials embedded within the infographic. The infographic will include a QR code that leads directly to 4 mini-educational resources; an instructional video, a quiz or puzzle, a digital breakout and a WebQuest.

IO2 - In-Service Training

The In-Service Training will build the skills of youth workers, so that they are proficient with the technological demands of today and remain relevant to the needs of young people. Alongside this, this training programme allows youth workers to develop their skills so that they themselves can develop Interactive Infographics, providing them with the technical know-how for the INFOGRAFIA project.

IO3 - INFOGRAFIA MOOC

The INFOGRAFIA MOOC acts as an e-portal, which hosts the 15 Interactive Infographics and In-Service Training Programme in one location. The MOOC is available in all partner languages and is also fully compatible with smart phones, tablets, and laptops.
