GreenEdTech

Green transition of Education and Educational Technology (GreenEdTech) is a green research project led by Aalborg University. The project is about green transition in Danish schools. The aim of the project is to develop a digital learning space for Education for Sustainable Development based on a Citizen Science approach. Another goal is to increase students' motivation for choosing careers focusing on sustainable development. In addition to creating more green jobs, it is necessary to provide the students with a better understanding of the consequences of climate change and sustainable solutions. To do so, a new strong consortium has merged under the name GreenEdTech. The GreenEdTech consortium consists of two academic institutions, Aalborg University and VIA University College, which will lead research and interventions in test schools. The digital software developer, Exfluency, will lead the development of the digital learning space. CFU Københavns Professionshøjskole will actively assist in the development of the learning space as well as in reaching out to danish schools. For the next 4 years, the partners will be working together in close collaboration with CONCITO, Green Hub Denmark, DI Digital, TOPSOE, Grundfos, Aarhus University and National Agency for IT and Learning. We are grateful for the significant investment from Innovation Fund Denmark that enables GreenEdTech to bring Denmark closer to the climate target in 2030 and to develop new educational solutions.
