The contribution of the telemdicine programme of Kosova on e-learning and continuous medical education: the outcomes of the first decade

Introduction: To assist in rebuilding the medical system of Kosova, the International Virtual e-Hospital Foundation in collaboration with Ministry of Health of Kosova has established a robust tele-education program through Telemedicine Centre of Kosova (TCK). Methods: A retrospective review of the results of educational activities was conducted. Results : Since January 2003,  sixty-two universities, medical centres and health organizations from more than 20 countries around the world have broadcast over 638 educational activities with over150 lectures. The CME program, consisting of approximately 80 lectures, had over 2,800 participants. The electronic library and resource room provides services 24 hours a day, 365 days a year with access to current medical literature through HINARI and other database had 64,167 visits. Overall 211,357 visits were recorded at the TCK, since its inauguration. Conclusions: Telemedicine program of Kosova has become an important catalyst of e-learning and CME in this country. The success in Kosova has led to the development of similar programs in other developing countries and has become a model of use of technology to improve educational capacities

Ulpiana and the romanisation of the Dardania

Ce thème de doctorat a été réalisé en cadre d'une convention de cotutelle réalisé entre l'Université Pierre Mendès Franca, Grenoble 2 et l'Université de Prishtina. L'habitat d'Ulpiana un oppidum quasi inconnu dans la Dardanie préromaine, après son invasion de la part des romains, devient un centre important politique, économique et culturel pour toute la Dardanie. Cette étude traitera l'historique du développement de la ville depuis sa fondation et jusqu'à son abandon, et montre une réflexion générale sur la base de données de nos jours qu'offrent les sources littéraires, épigraphiques, numismatiques et les résultats des rapports de fouilles archéologiques. Après son élévation au rang de municipium durant le règne de l'empereur Trajan, Ulpiana connait un agrandissement et un grand développement grâce à sa position géostratégique favorable qu'elle possédait en se situant dans un carrefour de routes importantes qui liait l'est avec l'ouest et surtout grâce aux richesses et aux nombreuses réserves minérales qu'elle possédait lesquelles étaient si importantes durant cette époque pour la stabilité économique de l'empire romain. Elle est devenue très vite l'un des centres gravitationnels le plus importants de toute la province de Moesie, en devenant un centre autant important de la propagation de la nouvelle mode de vie chez la population indigène. Ulpiana, mais aussi les autres centres urbains comme Scupi, Naissus ect, ont joués un rôle important dans le processus de la romanisation qui comprenait toute la population autochtone après l'invasion des romains. Dans ce travail de doctorat fut faite une synthèse générale du processus de la romanisation en Dardanie en soulignant les questions comme ; les enjeux de pouvoir, l'urbanisation, les aspects socio-économiques, les aspects culturels, les portées de la romanisation, la romanisation comme acculturation acceptée par les indignes et la résistance à la romanisation. Cette étude montre un traitement monographique global de l'histoire du développement de l'un des habitats le plus important de Kosova.This dissertation has been written based on an agreement (cotutelle) between Université Pierre Mendès Franca, Grenoble 2 and University of Prishtina. The Ulpiana settlement, an oppidum almost unknown in the pre-Roman Dardania, turns into a significant political, economic and cultural centre, after the Roman invasion. This study deals with the history of the development of the city, covering its establishment until its abandonment. Also, the study provides a general overview based on data from literary, epigraphic, numismatic sources as well as archaeological excavations. Upon its rise to the rank of municip, under the rule of Emperor Trajan, Ulpiana faces a swift growth thanks to its favourable geostrategic position on the very important crossroads linking the east and the west, but also because of its wealthy mineral reserves, which in turn were very necessary in ensuring the economic stability of the Empire. Ulpiana will soon turn into one of the most important provinces of Moesia, and in the process it also became a significant centre from where the new way of life diffused to the rest of the native population. Together with the rest of the urban centres like Scupi and Naissus, Ulpiana played an important role in the process of Romanization of the native population, after the Roman invasion. In this dissertation we have presented a comprehensive synthesis of the Romanization process in Dardania by highlighting issues such as: certain policy aspects, urbanization, socio-economic and cultural situation, extension of the process of Romanization as well as the reception of such a process by the natives and the resistance. This study presents a monographic discussion of the overall history of one of the most important dwellings in Kosovo
