Objective
Publications in the field of distance learning have included:
5 issues of a newsletter, available in English, French or German;
2 issues of the Multimedia Journal, including a video magazine;
13 issues of the Delta Bulletin, published in an electronic format on the teleconferencing service provided by EUROKOM.
As DELTA will pilot the way to a European Learning Technology Community, it needs two strong stands of communication:
- amongst DELTA participants, to ensure maximum synergy between the consortia by an up to date exchange of ideas and solutions,
- from DELTA participants to interested parties in European Educational environment to ensure a rapid and widespread application of the newly developed tools and systems.
In both cases it would be problematic, if communication only remained a one way distribution of opinions and results. Real interactive communication is urgently needed, to establish continuous development as well as adaptive cooperation between theoreticians and practitioners. Such a solution needs publishing expertise to serve as an agent between the interests of information providers on the one hand and users, administrators and applicants on the other. While paper and surface mail still remains a powerful tool for communication, especially in an IT&T environment electronic media could and should be used by exploiting their specific advantages. Developing a structured body ELTA could offer a powerful platform for all kinds of actors on a europewide scale. This process of formation has to be accompanied by the professional creation of publishing services, which ELTA - amongst others
- can use as tools. A pan European learning technology environment is a goal, remarkable steps forward can be obtained. Nevertheless national and language bound structures still dominate in that field. Developing a European consciousness requires contacts within their well known national environment.
INTERMAPS proposes a coordinated mix of services:
1.INTERACTIVE NEWSLETTER
- with continually updated electronic DELTA news and computer conferencing/interactive bulletin board facilities on EUROKOM,
- and a bimonthly print format in at least three language versions (English, French, German) with different national editions.
2.MULTIMEDIA SCIENTIFIC JOURNAL
- publishing intermediate results with minimum time delay,
- with a volume published every four months containing print, floppy discs, video cassettes where appropriate,
- in English, with detailed summaries in the main languages of the community.
3.VIDEO MAGAZINE
- It is necessary and integral part of the overall interactive package to present visual aspects of case studies, complex application environments, opinions, discussions
- by an hourly broadcast every four months via OLYMPUS backed by distribution of video cassettes on request.
To achieve this results, we need a well defined close European cooperation of partners, sharing their expertise in different fields and their familiarities with different national backgrounds and attitudes.
