Design of an independent European knowledgebase for deployment of visual communication into distance learning

The independent European knowledgebase targets practical exploitation of visual communication, e.g. videoconferencing and streaming video, into distance education and distance learning environments. The superior taxonomy for organizing information in the knowledge space follows a three structure offering web-based services for publication of new material. An open educational network providing effective dissemination of new pedagogical methodologies and new didactical frameworks, founds the information base. It will offers improved learning experiences by offering state of the art technical advises based on expert knowledge, good practices based on collective end-user knowledge, train the trainer program for teaching personnel, and model recommendations for the wide adoption and effective integration of visual communication into distance training programs.
