eLearning Centre’s place At the centre of our organisation
eLearning Centre The eLearning Centre is responsible for • technical support for teachers, • pedagogical support for teachers, • general development of eLearning, • license and software matters, • virtual strategy
Education • Instruction is offered on both scheduled and ad hoc basis, most teachers prefer the latter. • Teachers are not required to learn the use of software that is not directly required for their teaching effort. • Students are involved in teacher support. • KT-eOK encourages teachers to embrace eLearning.
Development KT-eOK pursues a flexible approach to eLearning, i.e. not one pedagogical focus, but: • Collaborative • Problem-based • Project-based • Progressive inquiry • Game-based (Ideally one course should include several approaches so as to cater to the widest audience)
Licenses (example) • Hot Potatoes is a shareware program with which different self-test exercises can be produced for the Web. Hot Potatoes is cheap and very easy to use.
Strategy • The eLearning Centre is pivotal in the development of educational and organistational strategies to enable and facilitate eLearning as one of the pillars of the information society. • Spearheads: Web pedagogics, Quality criteria (Virtual Polytechnic standards, European standards), Flexible approach.
