  2. Agenda 1. Background 2. Problem 3. Approach 4. Results 5. Summary and Outlook eduGI – www.eduGI.net.eduGI

  3. 1. Background • 2003-2004: eduGI.LA – Prototypical teaching materials and online sessions, www.eduGI.net/eduGI.LA/ • 2004-2007: eduGI.LA II – first e-Learning courses, www.eduGI.net/eduGI.LA2 • 2005-2007: eduGI – Exchange of e-Learning courses, winter semester 06/07, www.eduGI.net/eduGI eduGI – www.eduGI.net.eduGI

  4. 2. Problem • High-quality e-Learning is expensive • Extensive funding is over • Lack of business models for the „time after the funding“, e.g., maintenance and updating eduGI – www.eduGI.net.eduGI

  5. 3. Approach • Re-use of existing ressources • E-Learning platform (ISEGI, Portugal) • Course concepts, teaching materials (each partner having expertise and materials for his/her course) • Mutual interest in sustainable usage • Sharing of ressources in networks • Provision of 1 course, access to several external courses • Exchange of complete courses including teachers (vs. exchange of materials) • Non-fee business model eduGI – www.eduGI.net.eduGI

  6. 4. Results - projects • 3 courses performed, 5 prepared (eduGI.LA II) • 8 courses organized (draft syllabus, eduGI) • Low ressources for development (being experts, materials available) • Low ressources for course reception eduGI – www.eduGI.net.eduGI

  7. 4. Results – ifgi (Digital Cartography) • Good evaluation of teaching materials • Platform: lacking usability (previous version) • More interaction required • New to teachers and students • Return of investment • Costs ~ 17.000 €, 1/3 own ressources • Re-use of course at ifgi • Access to 6 courses with new topics for our students • Option for future exchange • E-Learning know-how eduGI – www.eduGI.net.eduGI

  8. 5. Summary and Outlook • Business model works • Low costs (providing and receiving courses) • Appropriate quality • Improvements needed (platform, interactions) • Exchange exceeding the current networks • Business model for blended learning courses eduGI – www.eduGI.net.eduGI
