T.R.I.e.L., a national partnership for monitoring and promoting e-Learning
Abstract
The Inter-institutional Board on e-learning supply and demand (TRIeL) is an institutional initiative aiming to establish an observatory on the adoption of e-learning methodologies. The network of TRIeL is the starting point for the development of a strategy able to support the dissemination of ICT educational best practices. The article reports the activities undertaken by the network, which has been working for some years on the promotion and the spreading of e-learning methodologies. TRIeL not only aims to present the state of the art of e-learning national practices, but it also aims to provide policy makers with relevant information in order to guide a quality e-learning system of supply and demand in the whole system of education and training, by emphasizing the refections and results of a Delphi survey. Refections on the applications of e-learning and its strategic role in education are related to the contribution of the European policies concerning the objectives of development, based on strengthening and integrating education and training, focusing in particular on the reasons for action in national politics
