e-Learning and Schools

Motion for a resolution
presented by Mr Fischer and others

This motion has not been discussed in the Assembly and commits only the members who have signed it

Experiences so far with e-Learning have demonstrated that the technological dimensions of e-Learning have now taken hold in most of the relevant institutes and in most areas of society. Yet the special features of e-Learning as a strongly individual instrument for training and learning imply that not only the learning context, but also the particular requirements of the various groups of users must be taken into account in creating and adapting this instrument. New pedagogical and didactical instruments and measures, as well as the skills to be achieved, will play an increasingly important role in making the necessary distinctions in developing e-Learning and in applying e-Learning.

1. How is it possible to guarantee that access to e-Learning is possible for all people living in the Council of Europe member states?

2. Under which preconditions is it possible to enable life-long learning through e-Learning in the Council of Europe member states?

3. Which different stages of development does e-Learning have in the Council of Europe member states?

4. Increased demands of professional mobility make it more difficult to participate in traditional learning processes, which results in increased importance for e-Learning. How can e-Learning be used as support, given the fact that international experience amongst people living in the Council of Europe member states is very much desired by the member states?

5. How is it possible to communicate to a vast number of people even beyond EU borders the importance of the Council of Europe for the respect of human rights and European integration?
