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.

Καλημέρα!! Good Morning!! Labrīt!! Dzień dobry!! Bună dimineaţa!!

Hello everybody!!!

My name is Giannis, I am from Greece, I am 21 and ready to meet you all!!
I am a student at the Athens University of Economics and Business, studying Management Science & Information Systems, so I am quite keen on technological issues. However, Podcasting is something I never knew, so this chance is really good! I will become a podcaster/radio producer from now on!!
hehehe
As far as me is concerned, I love meeting people from all over the world and I am eager to learn new cultures. I love travelling, I am funny (I think so... :P) and I love eating!!
Thus, such a program combines the best of both worlds!!!

That's all for now!!
Greetings from Athens!!!!!

    Hi Giannis, welcome to the team!

    I am also interested in the management field, although on the Law side. But still you could give me some insight of how your studies are going in Greece. So see you in Poland.
