From October 6–24, within the framework of the Erasmus+ Institutional Development Programme–funded project “Promoting High-Quality Digital Education in Georgia” (PRODIGE), a new cycle of capacity-building training was organised for representatives of consortium member universities.

The training “T3.2 Training on Pedagogical Innovation and DE Course Design” was delivered by colleagues from Haute Ecole de Namur–Liège–Luxembourg (HENALLUX) and focused on innovative approaches to digital course design and contemporary teaching methods.

From Caucasus University, 4 academic and administrative personnel attended trainings: Stategic Development Department Director – Professor David Tsiklauri,  Assistant of the Director of Project Management Department and Assistant Professor - Fred Katongole Kasirye, Invited Lecturer – Nino Tigishvili and International Accreditation Manager – Mariam Oshkhereli. As a result, these highly engaging training introduced participants to gamification and interactive learning design, using tools such as Genially, Mentimeter, Padlet, and Kahoot to explore new ways of fostering motivation, creativity, and meaningful learner engagement.

The training demonstrated how gamified and interactive methodologies can enhance student motivation, strengthen collaboration, and support deeper digital learning.

This session marks another important step within PRODIGE toward strengthening digital pedagogy in Georgia. Upcoming project activities will continue to focus on capacity-building, pilot initiatives, and expanding collaboration across institutions to promote innovative teaching practices in higher education.
