What
The pedagogical script is a working protocol designed to structure courses focused on developing innovation competence. It functions as a comprehensive framework that describes the context, pedagogical approach, and necessary elements to effectively implement innovation teaching in educational settings. It provides guidelines, orientations, recommendations, and examples for selecting and configuring the teaching environment for sessions.
Why
The script ensures an effective learning process for innovation competence, which is complex and requires a structured approach:
- It enables the creation of active and collaborative learning environments
- It helps define the teacher's role clearly as a facilitator
- It establishes reference frameworks for assessing competence development
- It facilitates the implementation of motivational strategies
- It provides a structure for integrating different teaching and assessment methods
How
The script is implemented through several key elements: Establishing learning environments based on challenges, projects, and service learning, preferably with a collaborative approach, defining the teacher's role as a facilitator, using a combination of assessment methods, implementing learning analytics for monitoring and improvement, and maintaining student motivation
CONTENTS
- What kind of learning environment(s) learning takes place
- Which role should the teacher have to play
- How to stimulate and maintain learner’s motivation to learn
- Where and how to assess the learning of the innovation competence
- How learning analytics can be used in the different case examples

The Pedagogical Script section provides a theoretical framework for structuring innovation competence development in educational settings. While this section outlines the fundamental principles, pedagogical approaches, and structural elements needed for effective innovation teaching, it is complemented by the more practical User Guides & Tips section. The latter offers hands-on recommendations and concrete examples derived from real implementation experiences. Together, these sections provide educators with both the theoretical foundation (Pedagogical Script) and practical implementation guidance (User Guides & Tips) needed to successfully develop innovation competencies in their teaching practice.
