mEducator kicks off!

John Domingue, Thursday 21 May 2009

This week saw the kickoff meeting of the mEducator project, which took place in Thessaloniki, Greece. Funded as Best Practice Network under the eContentplus programme of the European Commission after receiving outstanding review feedback, 13 partner institutions will collaborate throughout the next 3 years within mEducator to provide innovative, service-oriented eLearning solutions enabling specialized state-of-the-art medical educational content to be discovered, retrieved, shared and re-used across European higher academic institutions. KMi – represented by Stefan Dietze and Neil Benn – will take up on the well-received results from the previously completed EC STREP LUISA by leading a work package aiming at applying cutting edge Semantic Web Services (SWS) technologies to realise and evaluate a highly dynamic SWS-based eLearning solution.
