TACCLE IST course: Creating your own e-learning content in school education and adult education

The TACCLE in-service training course “Creating your own e-learning content in school education and adult education" will be organised from 3 April 2011 until 10 April 2011 in Ancona (IT). With this Comenius / Grundtvig in-service training our aim is to help teachers to develop state of the art content for e-learning in general and for learning environments in particular. We try to achieve this by training teachers to create e-learning materials and raising their awareness of e-learning in general. TACCLE will help to establish a culture of innovation in the schools in which they work. The training is geared to the needs of the classroom teachers and adult education teachers but teacher trainers, ICT support staff and resource centre staff may find it useful too.
