Cooperative eLearning Platform for Higher Education in Industrial Innovation

The modern education is changing its technologies and standards. It is to be flexible, adaptive, international, student-centered and targeted at innovations in real world. Moblity to best EU schools has become expensive for Non-EU citizens and less students have chances to come to international universities. It results in lower internationalization experience for EU students too. In addition the feasibility of cooperation between EU and Non-EU universities is declined, which can affect on socio-economical partnership of the countries. The project goal is to enforce the cooperation between EU and Non-EU universities in the field of Industrial innovation on the advanced open eLearning platform for blended, flipped and project based education. The platform will be the place where students, professors and industrial experts can meet each other. Hundreds of standardized, selected or developed courses under the umbrella of Industrial Innovation will be offered through the platform. SMEs and big industry and business will get the direct access to the advanced professional teaching services as well as to the community of students and professors. The latter is the ecosystem for project based teaching activities and crowd sourcing. EU project members share their experience in flipped/blended and project based education and help partner universities to establish the methodology and laboratories for the manufacturing of eLearning elements.The project contributes to the modernization of Higher education through its digitalization, internationalization and closer links to new realities in industry, business technology driven entrepreneurship. , The higher efficiency and compatibility of courses among consortium universities and other interested institutions will be the motivator and instrument for student exchange and new joint or double degree MSc programs.
