143. Main aim of TEL-Map The main aim of the TEL-Map project: to enable Europe’s TEL communities and their constituencies, to achieve earlier, stronger and longer-lasting results from their investments in TEL and use of TEL: as measured by the local and global visibility of TEL projects, and the adoption and impact of outputs from TEL projects such as tools, processes, content

144. 2 Strands 1.Mapping/Roadmapping – This strand focuses on Mapping and Roadmapping of the European TEL area 2.Awareness raising and Global Leadership Campaign – Awareness building and knowledge management on the results of EU RTD projects in TEL – Global Leadership activities in order to successfully participate in the international R&D community and to increase visibility of excellent European achievements in the field of TEL

145. Web portal: making the invisible visible Completed TEL R&D work (including national and EU research, projects) and their results in terms of invisible actions carried out after the end of the project – Any follow up sustained activities – What is the impact of these projects on TEL?

182. is to enable Europe’s TEL communities and their constituencies, centered on the TEL Unit in Luxembourg, to achieve earlier, stronger and longer-lasting results from their investments in TEL and use of TEL as measured by the visibility of TEL projects, and the adoption and impact of outputs from TEL projects such as tools, processes, content. The main aim of the TEL-map support action

183. Objectives of TEL-map 1. Bridging communities and supporting knowledge exchange through Mapping and Roadmapping activities for effective collaboration across TEL stakeholders We will use new semantic modelling techniques, and discourse management approaches to map the current state of the art in TEL and to support the different stakeholders that are developing the TEL maps and roadmaps and enable them to provide input in the different modules of the process: capturing, externalizing, aggregating and contrasting the views of communities aiming to collaborate

184. Objectives of TEL-map We will provide a meta-model for Dynamic Mapping and Roadmapping and a Mapping and Roadmapping platform to support Disagreement Management. This meta-model will provide the needed semantic interoperability between maps and/or roadmaps for fundamentally new forms of learning, developed by different groups using different approaches, models of the world (e.g. schemas, ontologies), starting points, interests, goals and motives in order to increase their chances for a mutual understanding of different perspectives.

185. We shall develop a professional web portal to support the dissemination of TEL activities, in particular with respect to EU projects’ progress/achievements on Fundamentally New Forms of Learning and their results/impact in TEL in general. Similarly to existing successful websites (such as elearningeuropa.info and ted.com), the TEL-Map web portal will offer quick search and easy browsing capabilities, self-publication facilities, Web2.0 networking (e.g. blogs and wikis, community/cluster areas) and personalisation features (e.g. RSS, mash-ups etc.), Awareness building for TEL RTD results and associated knowledge management tools.

186. The TEL-map web portal will provide news and interviews, as well as links to TEL EU and international networks, groups, and projects, and their work/results. Our aspiration is that this web portal will: (a) provide a widely recognised and publicly available, first-instance, single-point-of-access source of information for European TEL; and (b) link effectively with the community spaces of the Mapping/Roadmapping activities of TEL-Map. Awareness building for TEL RTD results and associated knowledge management tools.

187. We shall organise and host an extensive programme of high-profile TEL stakeholder consultation events, focusing on stakeholder engagement, mapping / roadmapping, awareness / dissemination and knowledge sharing for the wider TEL stakeholder community, within the EU as well as internationally. Awareness building for TEL RTD results and associated knowledge management tools.

188. Pan-European Observatory for Innovation in TEL This objective aims to provide (and make available for widespread use) a framework for developing a Pan-European alerting system for innovation We shall identify/record/ classify important trends and strong and weak signals at a global scale and analyse their significance for the TEL Maps and Roadmaps and for transfer and scalability. This requires tools for tracking the emerging context, which the maps and roadmaps aim to traverse, and against which they can be continuously reviewed and updated.

189. The main areas for support and capacity building within TEL communities Engagement of stakeholders in TEL communities, to ensure that they are broadly supportive of work relevant to them. Alignment (clustering, collaboration, discussion, modeling and disagreement management) within TEL communities. Dissemination to share insights, models, processes and tools that help with inward-facing needs of TEL communities; likewise for external-facing needs, especially to share ways and means to raise the external visibility and impact of TEL community outputs, e.g. via social networking. Forward-looking knowledge sharing e.g. in developing roadmaps and grand challenges, and in assessing likely future needs of users of TEL.

190. We aim to enable each participating TEL community to share its insights on past and current TEL and at least some of its thinking on TEL futures so that all TEL networks can benefit from improvements in the capabilities of the strongest participants in TEL and insights and innovative developments can be adopted more rapidly. As part of this capacity-building, we shall work with community representatives to empower them to better discern and interpret what is going on within other participating TEL communities and to share and exchange knowledge with these communities in order to take advantage of emerging developments in TEL of which it might not yet be aware.
