Alineame: Aligning teaching methodologies with assessment. Project oriented to the improvement of the quality of teaching staff in higher education institutions (2009). The objective is to analyze the development of competencies in ICT degrees by aligning teaching and learning methodologies with assessment strategies. Both experts in ICT education as well as teaching methodology participate in the project.
iCOPER: Driven by a consortium of key players in the European arena ICOPER will access to a critical mass of more than 12,500 hours of integrated educational content. Based on this beneficial infrastructure the project will systematically analyze the implementation of existing specifications such as IMS RCDEO, IMS LD, SQI, and QTI. ICOPER’s underlying educational framework will guide a consensus building approach to developing Best Practices, addressing issues such as (1) exchange of competency models and learning outcomes, (2) collaboration around learning designs, (3) integration of content via federated search and harvesting, (4) reuse of instructional models and content in learning deliver environments, (5) interoperability of item banks for assessment and evaluation.
FLEXO: Adaptive and accessible learning development in open source systems. Flexo develops and implements a generic model for adaptive and accesible learning in open source systems such as Moodle, LAMS or .LRN to be integrated in a single access and communication layer. Flexo will be demonstrated in several pilot experiences that will use a representative set of educational resources (use cases, templates) to guarantee the technology transfer to both corporate and academic environments. These communities themselves will provide feedback to the project and will guarantee its continuity.
mosaicLearning. Project to explore, implement and demonstrate how information and communication technology may modify traditional learning environments and create new ones never considered.
E-LANE: The project proposes the integration of solid, open source elearning applications with an innovative teaching methodology and course content from some of the most prestigious educational institutions in Europe and Latin America with the objective of providing the society with low cost educational experience.
SIEMPRE: Project to make technology available to professors giving them and their students with mechanisms to make a close supervision of the learning process quickly alerting of detected anomalies and suggesting concrete actions to solve them.
GENIUS: Project to focus on new curricula content development, based on the New ICT Curricula guidelines proposed by the Career Space consortium, focusing on undergraduate, postgraduate, non-traditional learners, multidisciplinary Curricula and Training. It explored instruction/content delivery mechanisms, corresponding to the new pedagogical paradigms based on the new ICT Curricula and e-learning platforms.
