Sustainable Blended-Learning in HEI: Developing and Implementing Multi-Level Interventions

This chapter aims to demonstrate how PAOL Unit for Innovation in Education, a project from ISCAP School of Accounting and Administration of Oporto Institute Polytechnic of Oporto, Portugal prompted new educational initiatives and new learning scenarios at a Higher Education Institution. Furthermore, it will demonstrate PAOL’s lines of intervention through an extensive analysis based on the 6 years of experience that this unit has in the educational technology field; a project that began small but that, due to the force of innovation, has progressively conquered new adepts. Therefore the unit described in this chapter relates all these factors, as a whole, capable of attaining changes that influence mentalities and methodologies, overcoming cultural and technical barriers. This case study can serve as a catalyst, potentiating the creation of new multi-faceted projects in the scope of web technologies in higher education teaching-learning processes.
