Winterschool Feb. 24, in Linz (AT)
Over the last years distance learning got an important role in higher education. We spend many hours with learning and teaching in front of the computer, using various online tools.
But distance learning is focused mainly on reaching goals concerning knowledge and skills. Social aspects and social interaction among students are rather rare. Hence shaping their proper attitudes is hard to achieve. Because of this, more and more students complain about the missing social contact with peers and also between students and teachers. This CEEPUS network has the aim to discover the wide range of social aspects of distance learning and to create concepts and solutions on how to enrich social activities in distance learning in higher education, to improve the learning process.
