TRANSCRIPT
Elearning, Communication and Open-data: Massive Mobile, Ubiquitous and Open Learning
European project funded by European Commission in Competitiveness and innovation framework programme
22 PARTNERS – 6 COUNTRIEShttp://ecolearning.eu/
Elearning, Communication and Open-data: Massive Mobile, Ubiquitous and Open Learning
• The project will demonstrate the potential of OER and MOOC • to widen access to education and to improve the quality • for lowering or remove technological barriers in learning processes • for users with special needs or at risk of exclusion.
• The expected impact of ECO • create their own online courses and other open educational resources
and distribute them through the open learning platform • ECO pilots will pay special attention to training European teachers. • preparing certified teachers
• Use state-of-the-art technologies• merged MOOCs platforms (based on individual platforms and resources
provided by individual partners in the project), • the combined and cross-border piloting activities in all the hubs involved
in the project.
GOALS
Elearning, Communication and Open-data: Massive Mobile, Ubiquitous and Open Learning
Steps• Design Pedagogical Model
• Determinate Technical
Functionalities and platforms
• Create one portal
• Create 16 sMOOCs pilots
• Create One MOOC
supporting how to create MOOC
• Run on 3 iterations
• Make creating own MOOC by
participant/group of participants
• Improvements
Continuous Improvement and Quality

Final considerations
• ECO was defined as an extremely ambitious project
• An extremely motivated group of professionals has made it possible.
• ECO’s methodology has been based on a strong self-criticism spirit throughout the whole project in order to reach high quality results and overall project.

sMOOCs for All, All in sMOOCs – INCLUSION
To Integrate and participate in a sMOOC
Inclusion with innovation
• Participant must feel – Welcome, – At the right place– Concerned– Understood
20
sMOOCs for All, All in sMOOCs – Inclusion• Welcome in new learning context
– MOOC Introduction, – Identification of MOOC actors (autors, facilitators…)– Get out hierarchy and previous pedagogical modelGet close
• Creation communities– Group creation– Discovery of other participants
=> Sense of community, similarity
21
sMOOCs for All, All in sMOOCs Welcome + Actions
Proposals and Tools to encourage this feeling and start action-interaction in
– Synchronous and asynchronous way– In new cultures, environnement
