Background

Since it started its activities in February 1999, the Learning Technologies Workshop has contributed to the effective development and use of relevant and appropriate standards for learning technologies for Europe.

The Learning Technologies Workshop decided, as a matter of principle, not to duplicate work already being done elsewhere, but to ensure that diverse European requirements are properly addressed by global initiatives. Specifications, agreements, guidelines or recommendations will be developed when no initiative addressing the identified requirements is in place yet or when global solutions developed elsewhere need to be localized to European requirements.

The Workshop liaises closely with CEN Technical Committee 353 'Information and communication technologies for learning, education and training', which was established in 2007.
 

CEN Workshop Agreements 

The Workshop has delivered a number of CEN Workshop Agreements, available for download.

In 2012 and 2013 the Workshop will work on the following projects:

- inLoc ELM 2.0: integrating Learning Outcomes and Competences;

- modelling European Learner Ownable Information;

- educationals qualification model;

- implementation of outcome oriented higher education.

Some other proposals are under discussion.
