DORTMUND SYMPOSIUM

The University of Dormund hosted our fourth and final EU[eComp]Int Symposium during March 2006. Embedded in the AHD Conference 2006, the discussion and panels of the eCompetence Initiative opened and disseminated this subject to a wider audience.

Consortium members were invited to attend and participate in the conference, which brought in people in the field from the US and across Europe.  We had a variety of experts in the field of elearning speaking and a number of panels to participate in.

This final symposium for the eCompetence Initiative was an informative and engaging event and instigated talk about ideas for future collaboration and a number of possible future funding proposals will be discussed via email in the coming months to pursue some of the promising lines of research that have been identified throughout our work with eCompetence.
