Which directions? Inputs from the JA partners (Lisbon, June 17 th ) a)Different scenarios and contexts b)Clarity of structure of the Handbook with a “metastructure” that helps to orient the user. c)A content “evidence based” to make it clear that it is not “out of the blue”. d)Test/self-evaluation for countries to estimate their situation. e)Ownership with authors from different countries with whom a user can identify.

Lay-out of the handbook The layout and the functionalities of the hypertext as you will see it on the website will surely be different from this: as of now the website is not yet in development stage and we can’t design the hypertext independently from the website itself. So what you see here it’s just to make the point that the handbook should be conceived as a hypertext from the start. DEMO  DEMO  NOTE

How far we still have to go?
