iCamp Success Story

We now received the final review report where our external reviewers commend us on our excellent work and our valuable contribution to European research in Technology Enhanced Learning.

Here are some quotes from the report, which can also be downloaded:

… In the opinion of the reviewers the products and outcomes of the project are of considerable significance for the development and implementation of Technology Enhanced Learning and we are confident of their future implementation and use within the educational technology community. Special attention is drawn to the work of the project in developing, testing and evaluating the use of social software for
learning….

The outcomes of the iCamp project have a high potential impact and offer extensive opportunities for exploitation. Firstly the tools and technologies produced by the project have wide potential use and can
be integrated in different frameworks and applications. As Open Source products, they can also re further developed and repurposed for future use.

Secondly the educational models developed by the project are of cognisance for moves towards technology supported collaborative and group based learning and student centred learning. The models are also of interest for those seeking collaborative work between students in different universities and different countries.

The handbook is a timely and well produced publication which will be of use to practitioners seeking to introduce social software for learning. The research framework and evaluation tools and processes developed by the project may also be of use in future research in this area.

The reviewers commended the project coordinators and partners on their work. They expressed their hope that the partners would continue to develop and exploit the outcomes of the work in future projects and
within the Technology Enhanced Learning community in Europe.
