Objective To develop advanced systems and
services that help improve access to Europes
knowledge and educational resources (including
cultural and scientific collections) and generate
new forms of cultural and learning experiences

• Part 1
• Technology-enhanced Learning

Technology-enhanced LearningIST 1998 - 2002

• Focus - integrating ICT in education and training
  environments and processes
• Technologies
• Tools for learning object production
  repositories of reusable learning objects,
  assembly of personalised courses, metadata
• Platforms supporting the use of virtual and
  remote labs
• Computer Supported Collaborative Learning
  environments
• Supporting innovation in learning through
• New organisational scenarios for universities
  schools
• New experimental delivery systems for Life-long
  Learning
• New pedagogical approaches
• Underpinned by open platforms, systems and tools

Technology-enhanced Learning in Workprogramme
2003-04

• Improving the efficiency and cost-effectiveness
  of learning, for individuals and organisations,
  independent of time, place and pace, through the
  development of open systems and services in
  support of ubiquitous, experiential and
  contextualised learning and virtual collaborative
  learning communities. Work combines advanced
  cognitive and knowledge-based approaches with new
  media, including virtual and augmented reality,
  virtual presence and simulation, takes account of
  technological, pedagogical as well as
  organisational aspects, and aims at demonstrating
  next-generation learning solutions in sizeable
  field experiments.

Learning Resources
9

• Research foci
• Leading edge technology (eg broadband, mobile,
  GRIDs, ubiquitous computing) to be applied
  according to insights from pedagogical research
• Interoperability of technology components for new
  architectural models using commodity products
• Knowledge modelling, representation and
  visualisation for learning - creating
  interoperable and widely accessible knowledge
  pools
• Computer Supported Collaborative Learning -
  flexible communities of practice

10
Technology-enhanced Learning
Challenges

• Improve quality and learning-effectiveness
• Reflect the nature of learning as a social
  process (collaboration, interaction, tacit
  knowledge)
• Support learners to construct their own knowledge
  according to their learning needs
• Link organisations objectives and learning goals
  of individuals
• New pedagogical approaches that blend new and
  old ways of learning

11

• Part 2
• Access to Cultural Heritage

12
Emergence of large-scale, inclusive cultural
landscapes where Europes digital heritage is
globally visible, interacts intelligently with
users, and persists over time
Prevent loss and restore access to Europes
essential cultural and scientific resources that
are in obsolete formats or are too rare or
fragile for regular physical access
13

• Measurable impact
• European wide approach to deposit new digital
  content within 10 years
• Reduce by 50 the cost of digitization within 5
  years
• Assured protection from loss of digital resources
  within 10 years

14

• Advanced digital libraries services, providing
  high-bandwidth access to distributed and highly
  interactive repositories of European culture,
  history and science
• Focus on shared test-beds and increased
  cultural- research cooperation

15

• Environments for intelligent heritage and
  tourism, re-creating and visualising cultural
  and scientific objects and sites for enhancing
  user experience in cultural tourism
• Focus on enhancing user experience
• Addressing common (not specific) needs of
  Europes museums, monuments, sites, etc.,
• An effective network should include take-up in
  NoEs and/or demo projects under STRP

16

• Advanced tools, platforms and services in support
  of highly automated digitisation processes and
  workflows, digital restoration and preservation
  of film and video material, and digital memory
  management and exploitation
• Focus on structuring new research communities
  around preservation
• Substantially reduce the cost of digitisation
• Provide an industrial platform for film and video
  restoration and preservation

17

• Working on topics such as
• Middleware and distributed systems
• Knowledge management and information handling
• Content authoring
• Trust and security
• Internet-based technologies
• Mobile technologies
• Multimodal interfaces
• Language technologies
• Visualisation and virtual/augmented/mixed reality
• Always focusing on integration into systems that
  can be tested in the real-world and can solve
  real-world problems

19

• Protection and conservation of physical objects,
  monuments, sites, etc., except where they direct
  link to digitally enhanced user experiences
• Generic technology development without any
  context or relevance to the problems of Europes
  cultural institutions
• Projects addressing a particular object,
  monument, site, or dealing with dealing with
  specific thematic collections
• Projects trying to cover everything eLearning,
  tourism, eCommerce, etc.
• Projects lacking strategy/policy impact

20

• Key messages
• No lower threshold on size, just ambition
• Ambition tangible significant impact on a wide
  spectrum of core stakeholders
• Generate knowledge, and new collaborations
• Integration for DL value-chain, existing
  national collections, public-private funding,
  training, end-user involvement
• Integration for preservation public
  institution-private company, multidisciplinary,
  demonstration, international cooperation,
  institutional buy-in, building a research
  community
• Should be THE project in the field

21

• Key messages
• Integration for DL joint training, interactive
  working, shared use of infrastructure, national
  programme commitment, create pan-European
  platform, common approaches, interoperability,
  open standards, exchange of expertise
• Integration for intelligent heritage create
  pan-European platform, common approaches,
  interoperability, open standards, demos and
  take-up, develop technology roadmaps
• Integration for preservation joint management of
  knowledge portfolio, staff exchange, common legal
  structures, long-term objectives, new research
  opportunities, concentration of resources, common
  approaches, develop policy roadmaps
• Integration for digitisation joint training,
  includes national funders, Ministerial
  commitment, create pan-European platform, common
  approaches, interoperability, open standards,
  good and best practice guidelines

23

• Finding a way to extend an existing project
• Having lots of sleeping partners
• Covering the map of Europe with nodes, etc.
• A loose group of like minded individuals
• Re-submitting a rejected proposal from past/other
  programmes and asking for 3-times as much funding
• Trying to federate different groups without any
  coherence, just because the Commission wants it
• Making a good small research project look like an
  IP by tripling everything
