The cases collected in this Compendium are examples of good practice in e-learning in Europe. They were all selected by countries participating in the ICT Cluster and Peer Learning Activities managed by Directorate General Education and Culture (DG EAC). In total, 43 cases were selected and described.
A template was used for all the cases in order to obtain a comprehensive overview of good-practice cases in Europe. This makes it easier to compare them and discuss learning points between the different countries1.
The Danish Technological Institute (DTI) edited all the cases in order to make them more comparable, but format differences remain and this should be borne in mind when reading the cases.
This Compendium updates the cases presented in the reports ‘Implementation of the Education and Training 2010 Work Programme — Report on Mapping of Recommendations’ and the ‘Progress Report’ produced by DG EAC in 2004. It was produced by DTI under the framework contract to support peer learning activities in the context of Education and Training 2010.
The above Recommendations and Progress Report grouped the initiatives according to the four recommendations for policy and practice proposed by the 2003 Report of the ICT Working Group.
The Compendium uses a number of themes cross-cutting the various cases in order to present the goodpractice examples. The advantage of this approach is that it focuses the discussion on learning issues which can be debated against the backdrop of national contexts. Therefore, this approach also provides an opportunity to discuss which practices can be transferred between countries and which may be specific to a national context. It also facilitates discussion on whether there are any preconditions for making an elearning initiative successful.
