eLene-TT: E-learning network for teacher training – Teachers are lifelong learners too.

Abstract

The creation of the European Higher Education space is bringing about a major evolution in the learning environment for both teachers and learners. Lifelong learning and increased mobility, both physical and virtual, will mean that both teachers and students need to constantly update their skills, making the best possible use of the available technology within sound pedagogical and didactic frameworks. As students become more and more familiar with learning in a virtual environment, they ask more of their teachers, the teaching process evolves and consequently the learning process itself.
This phenomenon has already been noted by many of the eLene-TT partners, whose will is now to accompany this process through the application of the results of recent research into e-learning and e-teacher training.
