What's Learn Pad?

Learn PAd is a EU commission financed project

Call: FP7-ICT-2013-11

Objective: ICT-2013.8.2Technology-Enhanced Learning

Target: Holistic learning solutions formanaging, reaching and engaginglearners in the publicadministrations

Kick-off: February 1st, 2014 (30Months)


Issues and challenges for the future PA

The PA needs to react fast to frequent changes in its organization and supported processes

- changes in the business flows,

- relocation of people

BP supported by PAs are typically extremely complex

- many exceptional and seldom executed paths

- typically involve many different offices/organizations

- are strongly interrelated

Current approaches to learning are not suitable to this dynamic and fast changing context


Learning in PA

Learning and sharing of knowledge(state of the practice):

- Informative and off-line

- Difficulties in sharing

- Difficulties in competence identification

- Difficulties in relating activities “in the small” with the overall objective

- Difficulties in relating information with action


The Learn PAd proposal

Learn PAd intends to build a platform fostering an approach based on 4 different pillars:- Model based- Collaborative- Competence identification and assessment- Support for different learning paradigm


Modeling for Learning

Learn PAd supports the definition of modelsfor representing activities to learn andthe working context (D3.1):- BP Modeling for Learning- Case Management Modeling- Organizational Modeling- Business Motivation Modeling- Competency Modeling- Data Modeling

Huge Meta-modeling effort


Modeling for Cooperating

Defined models are exported in a collaborative based infrastructure including a Wiki platform

- Wiki pages permits collaboration on contents

- Civil servants can suggest modifications to models

- Activities can be monitored to highlight and possibly reward cooperation


Modeling for Assessing

Defined models are used by suitable transformers to derive process simulations for learning

- Transformation from models can be defined to automatically derive questionnaire (possibly collaboratively refined)
