Tagging, Recognition, Acknowledgment of Informal Learning experiences (TRAILER)

[EN] Learners do not only learn in the institutions, they learn during their live in different contexts, with different resources and from the interaction with different persons. This kind of learning that is not always intentionally carried out is known as informal learning. The application of Information and Communication Technologies to learning and teaching processes facilitates making visible such kind of learning for the institutions. However the nature of formal and non-formal, coursebased, approaches to learning has made it hard to accommodate these informal processes satisfactorily. The project aims to facilitate first the identification by the learner (as the last responsible of the learning process), and then the recognition by the institution, in dialogue with the learner, of this learning. To do so a methodology and a technological framework to support it have been implemented and tested

Track on Knowledge Society Related Projects. Proceedings of the TEEM’13

TEEM (Technological Ecosystems for Enhancing Multiculturality) Conference is born within the new PhD Programme on Education in Knowledge Society at the University of Salamanca, Spain. This conference is addressing both the Social Sciences studies and the new technological advances but within a synergic and symbiotic approach. According to this perspective, a not closed set of different research lines, always with a collaborative orientation, is established, including Education Assessment and Orientation, Human-Computer Interaction, eLearning, Computers in Education, Communication Media and Education, Medicine and Education, Robotics in Education, Engineering and Education and Information Society and Education
