Paper Abstract:
|
In applying a reverse mentoring approach, the project re-ment aims at raising the interest of female students for Information and Communication Technology (ICT) professions and at contributing to the deconstruction of gender stereotypes in this field. This approach offers a completely new and innovative perspective in the field of gender equality and advancement of girls in technology. This innovative mobile learning approach is applied in re-ment as the mentors and the mentees communicate via a social network. The project implements reverse-mentoring programs in four partner schools in Austria, the main result being a comprehensive course for teacher education. |
