A Virtual Learning Journey on Community Reporting Training
The Virtual Learning Bus platform, resulting from the work of the LLP project ISABEL is on line. It is an open source Virtual Learning Journey on Isabel's project results and openly available multilingual resources. This "bus" will take you on a journey around the world of Community Reporting, with carefully designed "bus stops" that are full of all the information you need to successfully run and manage your very own Community Reporter programme and /or adapting it to other kind of Web.2.0-based learning. This resource has been devised as a sustainable tool for the re-use of the ISABEL project methodology, activities and results.

This resource has been devised as a sustainable tool for the re-use of the ISABEL project methodology, activities and results. The bus will make four stops on its journey – as a trainer or educator this means you can prepare for and plan your sessions with confidence and access the resources you need for each session. You can spend as much or as little time in each of the stops as your learners need and it is conceived that Community Reporter trainees may go on several loops of the journey, as they become competent in different areas of media production.
The four stops cover the following areas:
· First Station: PRESENTATION
· Second Station: TRAINING
· Third Station: PRODUCTION
Within each station you will find a range of materials that have been tried and tested on other groups – this way, the best learning is ready to be shared by existing facilitators with you. Materials include lesson plans, outlines and graphical support materials, video and audio documentation, including video evaluations from other learners, which can be a real asset in bringing the training to life for new learners.
By January 2013, your project will be able to co-manage the platform, adding to the stations' goals, uploading materials and resources and therefore enriching the data base.
We hope you enjoy your journey on the Virtual Learning Bus
DAIN Project. An Introduction
Qualitätsevaluation im e-Learning durch eine internationale Peer-Review-Gemeinschaft
Die Ergebnisse der ausführlichen Analyse lassen darauf schließen, dass mit dem Kapazitätenaufbau befasste Organisationen allgemein stark an Qualitätssiegeln interessiert sind. Meist handelt es sich dabei um ein Interesse an einem Instrument, das die Messung und Verbesserung der Maßnahmeneffizienz unterstützt, zur Gewährleistung des Erfolgs von e-Learning-Programmen beiträgt und das Benchmarking mit anderen Organisationen erlaubt.
Die Analyse, die wir in diesem Artikel vorstellen, zeigt auch, dass es bei den verschiedenen Organisationen Unterschiede hinsichtlich der Präsenz des e-Learning in ihren kapazitätenbildenden Maßnahmen gibt. Zur Berücksichtigung dieser Unterschiede wurde ein Siegel mit zwei Optionen — einer für eigenständige Programme und einer für Institutionen — entwickelt.
