''The following list includes the lists of institutions which [[The e-University Compendium]] and the UNESCO [http://www.unesco.org/iiep/virtualuniversity/linksliste.php IIEP List] feel are worthy of consideration as virtual universities. In a next phase, we have also included many of the accredited open universities around the world, and virtual elearning initiatives mentioned in other research projects or relevant sources of information.'' You can have a look at our [[original list of programmes.]] For all sources of information please check our [[Publication]] Page


They are not the only institutions worthy of attention as [[Notable E-Learning Initiative]]s ([[NELI]]s) and not all of them are [[MELI]]s or [[NELI]]s.


Other reports that provide good information on programmes to select for further consideration include:
They are of course not the only institutions worthy of attention as [[Notable E-Learning Initiative]]s ([[NELI]]s). This is a work of progress.


* [http://www.nshu.se/english/page/4713/reports.htm Reports from Swedish Net Agency study trips]
We present the Notable elearning Initiatives here as European versus Rest of The World. We appreciate that reaching a common agreement as to what constitutes ‘Europe’ is quite a complex task and one which reaches beyond the boundaries of a European Project like Re.ViCa. We have therefore taken the decision as a project team to use a definition of Europe that fits between a narrow definition of Europe as being made up of the 27 member states of the European Union and the broader geographic definition of Europe. We define Europe for the purposes of our work in Re.ViCa as including the countries of the EU, EEA and Switzerland. This means that the ‘Rest of the World’ refers to all countries which do not fall within this definition of Europe. Each Notable e-Learning Initiative is categorized and you can find per entry, to what category they belong. If you click on the category, you can find all other initiatives that belong to that category. You can find for example all "distance universities" or "national initiatives".

[[Notable elearning initiatives]]

Revision as of 20:25, 4 June 2009

The following list includes the lists of institutions which The e-University Compendium and the UNESCO IIEP List feel are worthy of consideration as virtual universities. In a next phase, we have also included many of the accredited open universities around the world, and virtual elearning initiatives mentioned in other research projects or relevant sources of information. You can have a look at our original list of programmes. For all sources of information please check our Publication Page


They are of course not the only institutions worthy of attention as Notable E-Learning Initiatives (NELIs). This is a work of progress.

We present the Notable elearning Initiatives here as European versus Rest of The World. We appreciate that reaching a common agreement as to what constitutes ‘Europe’ is quite a complex task and one which reaches beyond the boundaries of a European Project like Re.ViCa. We have therefore taken the decision as a project team to use a definition of Europe that fits between a narrow definition of Europe as being made up of the 27 member states of the European Union and the broader geographic definition of Europe. We define Europe for the purposes of our work in Re.ViCa as including the countries of the EU, EEA and Switzerland. This means that the ‘Rest of the World’ refers to all countries which do not fall within this definition of Europe. Each Notable e-Learning Initiative is categorized and you can find per entry, to what category they belong. If you click on the category, you can find all other initiatives that belong to that category. You can find for example all "distance universities" or "national initiatives".
