Summary

In ViCaDiS, a range of ODL actors from EU and CEE countries seek to enhance international eLearning by shifting focus from the institutional learning environment to the personal learning environment (PLE). The main objective is to build a virtual campus for digital students aimed at providing open educational resources and tools available and accessible for all students and to ensure the interoperability between the different eLearning environments used in the partner universities.
