	The research projects involved many international level experts in several disciplines (technicians, computer scientists, pedagogists, learning psychologists, experts in various languages). The results represent the theoretical bases upon which were realised the new organisational models of the distance teaching and learning system and of the new psychopedagogic and didactic models. The model is giving adequate answers to the qualitative and quantitative educational demands of the information society and to the need for flexibility, diversification and internationalisation of the teaching-learning processes; it is acknowledged by the international scientific community, as it results from the various publications and already has significant effects on the theories related to learning processes, teaching methodologies, distance interaction relationship.

The two telematic universities will jointly realise university degree courses, master’s courses, highly specialising courses and vocational training courses. They will share curricula, study programmes, teaching methods. The best professors of the Italian, Egyptian, European and Arab World universities will be involved into the project.

	Other relationships linked to the internationalisation process have been developed with other countries. In particular, here we can mention the agreement with the EMUNI Centre that established the Euro-Mediterranean University in Portorož, Slovenia. With this new Euro-Mediterranean University they developed an agreement to make UTIU develop e-learning courses in this university. At present the Euro-Mediterranean University, based in Slovenia, has already funded UTIU master’s course in Euro-Mediterranean Cultures and Policies and has already put at disposal the sites where all the 24 students enrolled to the master, coming from various Mediterranean countries, can attend a training period at the end of the distance delivery.

	~~L’attività dello studente durante tutte le fasi del suo percorso di apprendimento viene controllata dal sistema~~, ~~dove vengono registrate tutte le performance didattiche~~. ~~Le informazioni così memorizzate vengono rese disponibili ai tutor per migliorare e aumentare~~, ~~attraverso il monitoraggio continuo delle attività di studenti e gruppi di studenti~~, ~~l’efficacia degli interventi di soluzione delle problematiche dell’apprendimento~~; ai docenti per completare il processo di valutazione finale che dovrà tenere conto dei risultati delle prove intermedie proposte a singoli studenti, nonché dei dati di tipo quantitativo sulla fruizione del materiale didattico; ~~agli studenti per verificare i propri progressi e~~, ~~attraverso un processo di~~ auto-~~valutazione~~, ~~adeguare i propri ritmi al fine di raggiungere gli obiettivi formativi~~.		During his learning path, the student’s activities are checked by the system where are recorded all his training performances. The stored information are made available to the '''tutors''' to enhance and increase, through a continuous monitoring of the activities of the students and of groups of students, the effectiveness of the measures taken to solve learning problems; to the '''professors''' to complete the final assessment process that will have to take into account of the results of the intermediate tests proposed to the individual students and also quantitative data related to the use of the training material; to the '''students''' to make them assess their progress and, through an auto-evaluation process, to adjust their own rhythms to achieve their educational objectives.

The student opinion survey carried out on the 2006/2007 academic year registers on average a high level of satisfaction with the organization of the degree courses and the online didactics, with decidedly high percentage. Of considerable significance are the evaluations of the videolessons, exercises and efficacy of online tutoring, these representing the specific tools of the University and not usually found in traditional Universities. Such instruments were available in academic year 2006/2007 in already consolidated form. The relevant evaluations are decidedly positive, being around 80-90% in all the Faculties (value 5).

			The student opinion survey carried out on the 2006/2007 academic year registers on average a high level of satisfaction with the organization of the degree courses; more specifically it results that: and the online didactics, with decidedly high percentage
			# the overall organisation of the degree course registered high levels of satisfaction of the students who expressed positive evaluations as it regards the allocation of study workload of the courses in the reference period, both as it regards the overall organisation of the courses and the flexibility of the educational offer with a rate of positive evaluations of 80% of the received answers (level 4).
			# In the evaluation of the organisation of the individual course, particularly striking are the positive evaluations of tutors’ activity and of their wilfulness to help reaching peaks of 90% of the positive evaluations expressed; the modes according to which the exams are organised and the online didactic support are considered satisfactory in the 87.9% and in the 86.5% respectively of the answers (level 5).
			# as it regards training and study activities the student understand in clear way the topics presented both by the professor and by the tutor and again there is a high level of satisfaction on the students’ part as it regards the tutor’s work who is capable of stimulating the interest for the discipline, as indicated in over 93% of the answers (level 5).

	~~L’indagine sulle opinioni degli studenti condotta sugli iscritti dell’a.a. 2006/2007 registra mediamente un gradimento elevato dell’organizzazione dei corsi di laurea~~; ~~nel dettaglio risulta quanto segue:~~		The study aimed at contents comprehension level and not only at acquiring information registered positive evaluation among all students; the appropriateness of the tests adopted obtained over 90% of the positive evaluations (level 5).
	# l’organizzazione complessiva del corso di laurea ha raccolto giudizi molto favorevoli dagli studenti, che hanno espresso pareri positivi sia rispetto alla ripartizione del carico di studio degli insegnamenti nel periodo di riferimento, sia rispetto all’organizzazione complessiva degli insegnamenti, sia relativamente alla flessibilità dell’offerta formativa, con percentuali di giudizi positivi almeno pari all’80% delle risposte pervenute (livello 4).
	~~# Nella valutazione dell’organizzazione del singolo insegnamento, giudizi molto soddisfacenti hanno ottenuto l’efficacia del tutorato e la reperibilità del tutor, con punte di oltre il~~ 90% ~~di valutazioni~~ positive ~~espresse; le modalità con cui sono organizzati gli esami e il supporto didattico on line sono ritenute soddisfacenti rispettivamente nell’87.9% e nell’86.5% delle risposte (livello 5).~~
	# relativamente alle attività didattiche e di studio gli studenti percepiscono in maniera chiara gli argomenti esposti sia da parte del docente che del tutor, e ancora una volta si segnala l’apprezzamento degli studenti nei confronti dell’operato del tutor, che riesce a stimolare l’interesse per la disciplina, come segnalato in oltre il 93% delle risposte (livello 5).

	Lo studio finalizzato alla comprensione dei contenuti e non solo all’acquisizione di informazioni ha raccolto consensi tra tutti gli studenti; l’adeguatezza delle verifiche adottate ha ottenuto oltre il 90% di giudizi positivi (~~livello~~ 5).
