Towards a framework for identifying and evaluating best practice in e-learning and virtual campuses
Résumé
This roundtable reports on the work of a European Commission DG Education and Culture cofinanced project "PBP-VC Promoting Best Practice in Virtual Campuses" which is aimed at providing a deeper understanding of the key issues and success factors underlying the implementation of virtual campuses. A tentative model of issues underpinning best practice in virtual campuses which covers organisational, pedagogical, technological and student-related issues derived from an investigation into existing EACEA co-financed virtual campus initiatives within Europe will be outlined. The project is working towards developing a practical framework to help guide the process of creating best practice in virtual campuses, as well as raising awareness of issues and approaches to creating sustainable virtual campuses.
