eLearning evolution:a deep change
Integration of ICT in education has moved
• From research to practice• From awareness to take-up• From pilot projects to mainstreaming• From technological to cultural barriers
But it still calls for political leadership
European Commission DG Education and Culture
eLearning evolution:still a long way to go
• Lack of a common understanding of basic concepts: e-learning, digital literacy,
• Lack of comparable and timely data, of relevant output indicators and of adequate monitoring tools
• Lack of sufficient pedagogical research on the learning results of e-learning
• Investment in ICT has reached significant levels – yet, there is no clear evidence of a satisfactory ROI
Is the integration of ICT attaining its objectives ?
European Commission DG Education and Culture
eLearning policy:need for an integrated approach
Between different learning levels: Lifelong learningeLearning as a transversal issue, as a thread linking different levels of learning and different types of learners
Between research and practiceFostering technological, pedagogical, socio-economic and, in particular, user-oriented, learning-oriented research
Between supply and demand Building a solid demand, creating fair conditions for supplyStandards, interoperability, IPR & DRM, multilingual issuesFostering public-private partnerships
