The HINTS training week hosted by the International School of Business (ISB https://isb.tn/) in partnership with AMTA Academy of Sfax (https://amta.academy/)included a dedicated presentation of the DICE (Digital Community Engagement) project and its DICE Accelerator tool, introducing attendees to practical methods for designing digital community engagement courses and tools that increase student learning and social impact. https://app.diceaccelerator.eu/index/indexhttps://www.hintsproject.eu/
The DICE session presented the project’s core results and practical outputs: the Digital Community Engagement Value Maps (an analytical framework to identify learning priorities and value drivers), the Manual for Designing Digital Community Engagement Courses, and the Digital Accelerator platform that guides educators through a step-by-step course design process. These resources were shown as immediately applicable for partners seeking to embed community impact into digital and blended VET modules.
The DICE presentation complemented HINTS’ priorities for accelerating digital learning and quality assurance in vocational education by offering ready-to-use tools that are designed to scale across different national and institutional settings.. https://app.diceaccelerator.eu/accelerator/learningmaterial
Attendees were also introduced to DICE’s openly available resources (including a Manual for designing digital CE courses and case-study materials), which provide ready-to-use templates, value maps, and course design guidance that can be adapted by VET providers and higher-education teachers. These resources were shown as immediately useful for HINTS partners working to accelerate digital and green transformations in vocational education. https://app.diceaccelerator.eu/accelerator/sitemap
The DICE presentation complemented HINTS’ objectives to strengthen digital learning, quality assurance, and the green transition across partner institutions — creating clear opportunities for follow-up collaboration and pilot activities between DICE and HINTS partners.
DICE team’s planned public launch of the full Handbook and Accelerator (announced for early October 2025) was noted as an important upcoming resource for partners seeking to scale digital community engagement practices. https://www.hintsproject.eu/
