QMPP 8 partners from 6 countries ◦ Quality Specialists ◦ E-Learning Experts ◦ Organisation Learning Experts 2 year project financed by the LdV line of EU‘s Lifelong Learning Programme

Project Aims to create a thorough understanding of the various useful methods and tools in peer production of e-learning to identify key approaches of quality management in peer production of e-learning content and to benchmark good practices in peer production of digital content (in other areas than e- learning) to define key processes to support peer production of e-learning content to produce the content for the quality management tools for the pilot projects to validate the approach through structured piloting of its quality management approach in three different VET entities to produce a handbook and other tools to support the quality management of peer-produced e-learning content to organize a set of training sessions and seminars to support the quality management of peer production of e-learning.

e-learning as a group of pedagogies How is technology changing the meaning of learning?

peer production is evolving ‚too‘ fast Students are already using it Large potential for improving learning High quality risks if improperly managed Enable or Ban?

QMPP provides a quality framework

Steps of the Quality Process 1. Position your Process 1.Purpose of the Process 2.Context of the Process 2. Define the Tools & Technologies Used 1.Each tool has different quality implications 2.The approach is technology independent 3. Assess suitability for Purpose

Steps of the Quality Process Define Enabling Processes for Quality 1.Which pedagogical approaches would best accompany this method of peer learning? 2.Specifically pinpoint the necessity of a peer driven approach 2. Define Enabling Tools for Quality 1.Tools for Quality not for Peer Production 2.Methodological & Technical Tools 3.e.g. require referencing, track persistence

Next Steps Define examples of Content Creation Excellence (CONCEDE project) Work with our corporate partners to integrate peer-learning quality thinking into e-learning tools
