OLLO 2000OLLO 2000OBJECTIVESOBJECTIVES

To translate the current modules into English

To determine the extent to which the current OLLO modulesmay need to be adapted, and supplemented with newmaterials, to make them a satisfactory basis for courseswithin Romania and Bulgaria

To determine the feasibility of creating a continuing networkof institutions to develop OLLO related materials beyond thelife of the present project

A further objective of the project will be to encourage theinvolvement of institutions from other Central and EasternEuropean countries

Course DescriptionCourse Description ideas of Open Systems and interoperability providing the ability to navigate the world of Geographic

Information, to understand the complex information about Open GIS

the skills to use Open GIS software, specifically Geomedia and Sirius 7 which are provided with the course

background concepts and knowledge on the technical issues surrounding Open GIS, such as spatial referencing, metadata, standards and databases

case studies developed in H and RO around real data sets and real applications

TechnologyTechnology

New technology is usedNew technology is used Microsoft PowerPoint Mindman HTML

Presentation in HTML Presentation in HTML

PowerPoint and Word are used to provide both lecture materials and class notes

The level consists of a slide or screen, typically with some text and a small number of bullet points, together with notes and the associated resources

Organization of learning materialsOrganization of learning materials

ResourcesResources

Resources are files accessible through hyperlinks from the

branches of the mindmap, held locally or on the web.

DeliveryDelivery

Course delivery will be by a number of mechanisms which will be complementary.

The main materials will be delivered by paper based modules which will include notes on each of the course topics and a number of literature resources. This will be supplemented by digital resources available on CD and over the WWW.

The course length is 8-18 weeks started with an introductory workshop, followed by an equivalent of 100-hour distance learning, finished by a 4-day training

EDUCATIONRESEARCHAPPLICATION

ConclusionsConclusions

The basic principles are communication, cooperation and coordination between teachers, trainers, industry and students.

Open distance education is more appropriate than traditional approaches.

Distance education is always a team effort to which the actors are to be trained.

The management should build many feedbacks into the couseware development project life-cycle.

The most important factors in course delivery are openness and flexibility.

There is an urgent need for credit transfer system.
