2nd International Workshop on Building Technology Enhanced Learning solutions for Communities of Practice
17 September 2007 - 17 September 2007
Austria
This event is supported by the Professional Learning Cluster (PRO-LC) and constitutes a unique platform for members of EU projects to exchange on their respective progresses and to present their achievements at an international level.
This interdisciplinary workshop brings together researchers in information technologies, experts in educational sciences, as well as mediators of communities of practice (CoPs). As such, it turns out to be a true face-to-face opportunity for implementing participatory design as advocated within the PALETTE project. The objective of this approach is to provide CoPs members with truly acceptable social software for information production, knowledge management, and collaborative learning.
As stated by Denis Gillet from EPFL, creator of the eLogbook PALETTE service, “CoPs are effective environments to support learning by professionals, organisations and educational institutions. In the PALETTE project, CoPs members are shaping innovative collaboration solutions that will meet their real needs, and service developers are opening new interaction realms that will enhance CoPs practices and sustain their evolutions”.
Scientific coordination of PALETTE is headed by EPFL and University of Fribourg while the management of the project is ensured by ERCIM, the European Research Consortium for Informatics and Mathematics.
