Information Notice

 

This document will explain to you what it involves to participate in Beyond Education (BE) ⓒ research-based educational program(s), that from now on it will be called the “action-research”.

 

In order to carry out this action-research, BE ⓒ requires the digital storage of some personal data about yourself as detailed below.

 

The purpose of this document is to inform you about the terms and conditions of this action-research as well as your rights as a participant. To participate in this action-research, it is necessary to read this document completely, and at the bottom of the page, indicate your choices on the processing of your personal data or, if you are under 16, let one of your parents or your guardian, digitally sign it on your behalf.

 

BE ⓒ is an international company funded by educational and social sciences practitioners and researchers that offers a fully online experience based on the principles of child psychology, learning sciences, and the most innovative educational models. Unlike formal education, BE ⓒ programs are completely learner-centric and are adapted to students’ ages, abilities, and interests. The aim of these programs is to develop 21st century competencies in different age groups: 13-15, 16-18 and 19-21. Programs include, but are not limited to: leadership, entrepreneurship, global citizenship, digital literacy, and teamwork. Each program includes different types of individual and online group activities, during which, some of your personal data will be collected.

 

These activities will be carried out through a platform that is operated by our partner and subcontractor: DreamShaper, that from now on will be called “the platform”, composed of this Moodle environment as well as a set of DreamShaper environments for students to access. In order to access any of the BE ⓒ programs you will need to create an account in the platform and connect to the BE ⓒ program of your choice. Activities to be done during the BE ⓒ program might include:

 

Individual activities. Ten to twelve sessions will be online for you to practice the different 21st century competencies.

Group activities. Facilitated or non facilitated sessions will be offered to you in order to complete collective activities and challenges with other team members of the program all around the world.

The data collection will be done several times, according to the following modalities and time frames:

 

Once you are enrolled into a program, before starting any activity, the platform will ask you to complete socio-demographic questions (average duration: 5 min).

Following this questionnaire, you will be asked to answer two welcome questionnaires: 1) A general 21st century competency questionnaire (The 21st-Century Competencies Compound Inventory; CCI-21; average duration 10 min.); 2) A specific competency questionnaire defined by the program of your choice (average duration: 5 min.). These questionnaires will allow you to know yourself better and help you define the life and academic objectives you wish to build during the program. From BE ⓒ side, it will allow the BE ⓒ team to better understand your strengths and preferences. It is mandatory to answer these questionnaires, and we strongly recommend that you do so, as it is an integral part of our program. They will allow us to provide you with a personalized report at the end of the program to support your development.

Once you have started the program, in each session you will be asked to answer short reflective questions and rate each session’s quality (average duration: 5 min.) in order to know your opinions and suggestions regarding the activities you follow in the program.

Once you have finished the programs, you will be asked to answer two farewell questionnaires; the CCI-21 and the specific program questionnaire.

After the farewell questionnaires are completed, you might be contacted to participate in an optional recorded interview and/or focus group with a BE ⓒ professional. If any conversation should be recorded, you will always be notified and asked in advance.

This action-research should not cause any inconvenience or major risks to your health and private and/or professional life. If you experience difficulties in talking about your personal insights, we may notify your parents or guardian immediately to seek for the necessary help.
