Conclusions Ver versión española al final

Conclusions • In Spain, 4.000 eTrainers demonstrated their approach to eLearning by participating on several CoP. • They are interested on more than 18 subjects. • Standards & LD are interested subjects, but not the most. • 9 roles are acting on the chain of production and delivering eLearning. • There is a wide distance between eTrainers and technicians. • A bridge should be build to approach both groups. • The project www.a3net.net/enstructor runs first step, but it is not enough. • Mixed communities of practices should be build Use free, just quote

Questions to PhD researchers on IMS-LD: To build bridges … • Who is the target? • What should be learn by the end-users? • What could be learn in 10 h? Paco Cerezo

Conclusiones • En España, 4.000 eFormadores han demostrado su interés por eLearning participando en varias comunidades de práctica (CoP). • Estos eFormadores están interesados en más de 18 áreas temáticas. • Estándares y diseño instruccional (learning Desing LD) son áreas de interés, pero no son las más interesadas • Se han detectado 9 roles actuando en la cadena de producción y de entrega de eLearning. • Hay una gran distancia - laguna- que separa eFormadores de técnicos. • Se debe construir un puente que acerque a ambos grupos. • El proyecto www.a3net.net/enstructor y con sus 6 módulos de formación camina el primer paso, pero es insuficiente. • Se deben construir comunidades de practica mixtas.
