- The Project - • The maze of results from EU-funded eLearning-related projects can make it difficult to know which direction to take for new research and new policies. Supported by the eLearning Action Plan, the DELPHI Project aims to synthesize the results of recently completed RTD projects in an attempt to shed light into the fundamental changes arisen at the level of methodologies and learning processes necessary to propose a future agenda on the innovative use of ICT in Education and for the benefit of the European citizentry’s Lifelong Learning endeavours. • In principle the DELPHI Project aims to give responses / on specify the trends to a series of transversal research questions. Management Center Innsbruck | Presentation Delphi-Project | Learntec 2004
- Research Questions - • What are the new methodological approaches to learning in technology-based learning scenarios and what is their efficiency? • What are the new co-operative learning processes, the cross-curricular skills and changes in teaching/learning, role changes configuring technology ICT-based learning innovations? • How is effectiveness considered in the different innovations analysed? Management Center Innsbruck | Presentation Delphi-Project | Learntec 2004
- Research Questions - • What are the consequences for organisations when introducing these new ways of learning, including European cross-cultural issues involved in the process? • What are the contributions of ICT to lifelong learning in terms of access to education and training? Does the introduction of ICT stimulate the dual society and thus social exclusion? Management Center Innsbruck | Presentation Delphi-Project | Learntec 2004
- Main Goals - • to synthesise and disseminate research findings of innovative projects with educational and socio-economic value. • to assist the Commission to assess their results, by undertaking a scientific review and evaluation of projects funded by different programmes that are/have approached e-learning innovations from different perspectives and in different sectors. • to implement an Internet-based observatory on learning innovation, to present and disseminate research work of EU funded projects and to establish a center of excellence as an active promoter and disseminator of innovative research projects. Management Center Innsbruck | Presentation Delphi-Project | Learntec 2004
- Project‘s Objectives - • to critically assess a cluster of projects of the 5th framework programme and action calls of IST, IHP and MINERVA, that are connected to the application of ICT in education and further addressing e-learning issues by identifying new methods and practices. • to set-up an observatory for scientific monitoring and evaluation of the emergent use of ICT eLearning in support of education and training in Europe, building up on existing national, European and international practices with a special focus on e-learning innovations. • to implement a European laboratory for innovation in e-learning as a source of reference and guidance to European research and as an active promoter and disseminator of innovative research projects. Management Center Innsbruck | Presentation Delphi-Project | Learntec 2004
- Target Groups - • The European research community • Managers and practitioners of the different education and training sectors, including formal and informal learning • Policy makers Management Center Innsbruck | Presentation Delphi-Project | Learntec 2004
- Key Outputs - • Reports on the analysis of 30 projects funded by MINERVA, IST and IHP Programmes • A list of Qualitative Indicators of Innovation in e-Learning Reports on Pedagogical, Institutional and socio-cultural aspect of eLearning practices • Policy Recommendations • DELPHI Workshop on the Transferability, Sustainability and Scalability of eLearning innovations • A European Observatory of e-Learning Practices including an experts Laboratory Management Center Innsbruck | Presentation Delphi-Project | Learntec 2004
- Delphi Workshop - • The DELPHI workshop will gather together researchers from different Member States who coordinated or were involved in projects funded under the MINERVA, IST and Improving Human Potential programmes. The Workshop will address the need to valorise research done in this area, elaborate policy briefs suggesting new directions for research and recommendations for future policy directions.

- Delphi Workshop - • DELPHI WORKSHOP • INNOVATION & NEW LEARNING TECHNOLOGIES • Transferability, sustainability & scalability • 7th June 2004 • University of Manchester & UMIST • Manchester School of Management • UMIST Campus South • Booth Street East • Manchester UK Management Center Innsbruck | Presentation Delphi-Project | Learntec 2004
- European Observatory - • The DELPHI Observatory is a platform for the presentation and exchange of information on eLearning approaches as identified from projects funded from various programmes and action lines from the European Commission. It will serve as a platform for the share of experiences and good practices. Management Center Innsbruck | Presentation Delphi-Project | Learntec 2004
- European Laboratory - • DELPHI is implementing a European laboratory for innovation in e-learning as a source of reference and guidance to European research and an as active promoter and disseminator of innovative research projects. The aim is to build a cooperative and collaborative community of professionals within the field of e-learning innovations. • It engages predominantly in research on innovative solutions to the emerging challenges and opportunities of the transcending learning environments, linking pedagogical, technical, organisational and socio-economic research. The endeavour of the lab is the facilitation of new connections, as well as the ease of knowledge transfer. • The laboratory will be a central point for establishing a European research network on learning innovations.
