Current European research shows that a flexible approach to learning is favoured by a growing number of students who need to fit working life within the framework of learning new skills; in addition, older members of the workforce wish to engage in life long learning. For many people full-time attendance at a local training organisation is problematic due to disability, geographical location or working patterns. The aim of the project is to develop Educational Podcasting (audio/media broadcasting over the internet) to enable these learners to gain knowledge through part-time attendance whilst maintaining the personal support of a tutor.

The six partners, from Greece, Italy, Latvia, Romania, Poland and the UK have met regularly over the life of the project to develop the product, evaluate activities, plan tasks and resolve issues. In the second year of the project, trainees have also been involved in these meetings to ensure the successful piloting of the project. Effective communication between meetings has be ensured via e-mail, video conferencing, on-line meetings and a project blog.

The majority of the podcasts that are presented in this blog, have been developed by the students of the project which have enhanced their technological together with their cultural skills.

  1. Dear all,

    In Greece we are still warm with sunny weather and 23 degrees. We have updated the blog with the videos that the students have made for Petrosani (we still miss the videos from Latvia and UK), we have updated the information regarding the next meeting and we have put all the information that Barrie has sent us on the learning platform. With this last issue we had a small delay because we had some technical problems with the uploading of sound files but we have resolved them, so now everything is ready for the students to star work. So, now everything in the platform works fine.

  2. Hello everyone from Leeds. There are 7 weeks

    to work until Poland. Kostas has completed the

    Learning Platform and made it easy to use. We

    have to communicate on the Blog because we are

    not using it effectively.
    I have a question- Are your students working

    on the assignment questions on the Platform to

    prepare for Poland?
    If you do not reply to this Blog by 17th

    December I will assume they are not working

    and there is a technical problem.Please advise

    me as soon as possible.
