Better access to knowledge and advisory services through E-learning platform

Boljši dostop do znanja in svetovalnih storitev prek platforme za e-izobraževanje

Digital transformation has many dimensions, among them the use of advanced collaborative and educational methods. The advisory service follows this flow and strives to be more innovative, as well as more responsive and accessible to farmers at any time. This need was further accentuated during the Covid-19 pandemic.
 
By using a common platform for knowledge transfer and easy communication between farmer and advisor (via text or video), agricultural advisors will provide farmers with faster and better-quality services, supported by professional content from all fields of agriculture gathered in one place. The so called E-learning is based on the Moodle platform and thus designed and adapted to the needs of the farmers. The professional content of the platform will be taken care of by advisors, specialists in individual fields of agriculture. Farmers will be able to access professional content and at the same time to communicate online with an advisor on specific content.
 
Content recommendations for the e-learning platform for farmers and advisors:
- E-learning platform has to contain video trainings, forums, workshops, agricultural seminars, an overview of all trainings
- It could also have a section of events and important dates in agriculture, the possibility of obtaining certificates from trainings, etc.

Uporaba naprednih izobraževalnih metod je v samem vrhu digitalne transformacije. Kmetijska svetovalna služba želi slediti temu trendu in si vseskozi prizadeva biti inovativnejša, pa tudi bolj odzivna in dostopna kmetom v vsakem trenutku. Ta potreba je postala še bolj izrazita v času pandemije Covid-19. Z uporabo skupne platforme za prenos znanja in enostavno tekstovno ali video komunikacijo med kmetom in svetovalcem, bodo kmetijski svetovalci kmetom zagotavljali hitrejše in bolj kakovostne storitve, podprte s strokovno vsebino z vseh področij kmetijstva. Tako imenovana e-učilnica temelji na sistemu Moodle, prilagojenemu potrebam kmetov. Za strokovno vsebino platforme bodo skrbeli svetovalci, zlasti specialisti za posamezna področja kmetijstva. Kmetje bodo imeli možnost dostopa do strokovne vsebine in hkrati možnost komunikacije s svetovalcem v zvezi s konkretno vsebino. Poleg navedenga pa bodo pomemben del platforme še spletni seminarji, farminarji, forumi, delavnice, krožki, koledar dogodkov in pomebnih rokov, možnost pridobitve certifikata o izobraževanju ipd.
