Experts

WojciechZielinski: /* Experts and authors */ change in affiliation

This list should contain names of people who have a good overview of the European and ideally the world scene in large-scale university-level e-learning. This may have been achieved via having senior positions in relevant organisations, EU projects or research or consultancy for EU and international agencies.

Eminence or technical skill are not in themselves sufficient to justify inclusion on this list!

The list also should include all authors of papers directly relevant to the field.

See also [[People]] and [[Advisory Committee]]

Those marked with an * are also suggested for the International [[Advisory Committee]]

Names of individuals should be added in their "firstname surname" form, without titles (such as Professor, Dr, Mr, Mrs etc). Variants and common misspellings should be entered as redirect pages to the correct name. If accents exist like for [[Grégory Lucas]] they should be added but with natural flattenings (i.e. without accents) such as [[Gregory Lucas]].
