The document discusses a study conducted to develop a common terminology for discussing the learning outcomes of OpenVM activities. Researchers conducted a Group Concept Mapping study involving stakeholders to create a visual model of the skills learned through OpenVM activities. This new framework of OpenVM learner skills allows practitioners to better discuss, compare, and optimize the design of OpenVM learning environments to promote the development of learner skills in complex online learning settings.
In spite of the social and cultural benefits of mobility for Higher Education, awareness and exploitation of mobility instruments are still not as extensive as anticipated. The aim of this Learning Café led by Ilona Buchem of Beuth University is to collaborate and formulate recommendations for the design of a collaborative Learning Hub for Open Virtual Mobility. Join us for take-aways and insights into subjects including: Virtual Mobility and Open Virtual Mobility; the design of a collaborative Learning Hub and the creation of OERs, MOOCs, Open Credentials and E-Assessments. You will have the chance to contribute to the design with your own recommendations and to network with participants interested in Virtual Mobility and Open Education.

1) Higher education institutions have traditionally focused more on education than learning and classrooms still resemble those from the 19th century.
2) Personalized learning has the potential to cater to individual differences and bring more students into education through inclusive and adaptive technologies.
3) UNED aims to develop a roadmap for personalized learning through first establishing an ethical framework for data use, then gathering and analyzing student data to design evidence-based interventions and predictive models.

The Europortfolio project aims to establish a European network of eportfolio experts and practitioners from education, training, employment, and lifelong learning to address the fragmentation of eportfolio initiatives, technologies, actors, and information. The network will define an eportfolio framework, transfer knowledge between initiatives, contribute to eportfolio policies, raise awareness among educators and employers, and develop a sustainable online community portal for sharing resources and practices. This will benefit eportfolio experts through collaboration and research partnerships, practitioners by providing tools and lessons learned, and policymakers with evidence and frameworks to inform policies. The consortium is led by the University of Zagreb and includes partners from France, the UK, Poland, Austria, Denmark, Spain, and the US.

OERs and MOOCs – the Romanian experience Diana Andone
OERs and MOOCs – the Romanian experience paper, authors Radu Vasiu, Diana Andone, presented at International Conference on Web & Open Access to Learning, 24-27 November 2014, Dubai, UEA.
Using Open Educational Resources (OER) provides opportunities for collaboration both in the classroom and beyond. Started in 2008 and gathering momentum over the past two years, now an online phenomenon, MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) reunite different perspectives over a globalized online learning. The paper analyses the use of OER and MOOCs in different study cases in Romanian universities. Several OER initiatives resulted from the over 1000 academia involved in the DidaTec lifelong learning and training for higher education teachers in the technical sciences and engineering field as a training course for university professors in 12 universities, within the aim of improving the use of ICT in higher education. Four universities from Romania started a Romanian MOOC environment, the UniCampus, which provides free access to valuable education in Romanian language, presented by well-known professors. The evaluation and quality assurance challenges of the Unicampus are mainly due to the restrictive educational setting in Romania. Two study cases on blending MOOCs in traditional higher education courses at undergraduate and Master level are also analysed from the impact on students’ motivation. Integrating MOOCs in blended learning empower students with new abilities and requires a new and open teacher model.

Building up a Digital Education Eco-systemDiana Andone
The document discusses the development of a digital education ecosystem at Politehnica University of Timișoara in Romania. It outlines how the university has built up its digital infrastructure over time, including developing its learning management system, integrating new tools, and creating a virtual campus. It also describes how the university rapidly transitioned to remote education in March 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Key aspects of the university's digital ecosystem include its virtual campus, various elearning tools and platforms, open educational resources, MOOCs, virtual mobility programs, and efforts to support digital skills development among students, faculty and the broader community.
This document outlines the agenda for a Peer Learning Activity on virtual mobility organized by EADTU. The PLA will bring together stakeholders in international education to discuss opportunities for virtual mobility. Participants will include higher education institutions, university networks, public authorities, and agencies. The goal is to identify good practices, new developments, and recommendations to stimulate virtual mobility and European university networks. The outcome will be a report identifying the roles of stakeholders and collecting virtual mobility practices, innovations, and advice for implementing virtual mobility at multiple levels.
This document discusses open education practices at the University "Ioan Slavici" of Timisoara in Romania. It defines open education and describes some key open education practices at the university, including: [1] ongoing innovation of blended courses through the integration of open educational resources (OERs) and massive open online courses (MOOCs); [2] continuing teacher training through participation in MOOCs and communities of practice; and [3] participation in open education initiatives in Romania. The benefits and challenges of integrating MOOCs into blended courses and flipped classrooms are also outlined.
