FORUM DISCUSSION: LEARNING 2.0.
The Learning 2.0 research project initiated by DG EAC and IPTS studies the impact of web 2.0 trends on learning, and the potential of these new innovations for Education and Training in Europe. The validation workshop that recently took place in Seville triggered an exciting and controversial debate among experts in the field. We would like to invite all interested in the issue to contribute to the discussion around two questions: What is really new about Learning 2.0? and What are the drawbacks of Learning 2.0?
PROJECT OF THE MONTH.
The BONy project develops a Cognitive Learning Management System allowing users to personalise their own educational pathway. BONy supplies a multilingual access to information and educational contents. This involves an ontological approach to knowledge management, thanks to the Semantic Web methodology. A pilot course on European project management will take place in December 2008. If you are interested to take part in it you may contact the project team.
