Networked e-Learning: Opportunities, Obstacles and Solution Scenarios for Obstacles. NetCampus: Improving ODL in a Network

The project aims at identifying a comprehensive list of all critical factors benefits as well as threats of networked e-learning. Starting with a review study of existing expertise and experience on providing ODL in a networked environment, it is the objective to gather in an efficient and effective way the state-of-the-art knowledge on models for networking, barriers and obstacles to a successful implementation, potential benefits and added value. Next, solution models and scenarios to overcome obstructions and obstacles identified as being obstructions for networking are developed and tested through pilot activities. Finally, a variety of dissemination activities are set up in order to improve ODL in a network of universities. This paper describes the current state-of-the-art in the project.
