Projects: New Practices in Flexible Learning 2005

Objective

The objective of New Practices in Flexible Learning is to stimulate providers to implement innovative practices with a focus on e-learning, e-business, online student support and self-service.


Key outcomes

In 2005, New Practices in Flexible Learning will fund projects that increase provider and vocational education and training (VET) practitioner capability to provide sustainable innovation across the spectrum of training delivery activities and support services, including e-learning,
e-business, teaching, assessment, business process, collaboration and integration with other educational sectors.

The New Practices in Flexible Learning Project will contribute to:

  • increased provider capability to provide training delivery and support service innovation for improved flexibility, quality, productivity and client satisfaction

  • a range of available e-learning solutions and options

3. Connecting the Dots: breaking down the barriers to participation

4. QTI m-Player: question and testing interoperability (QTI) player for mobile devices
