    Next three years our work in the Centre for Educational Technology will be related with European IST 7th Framework Project IntelLEO. IntelLEO is an acronym for extended intelligent learning organization model – a hybrid knowledge-management model between two institutions.

    The objective of the project is to explore how the responsiveness of the learning and knowledge-building environments in an IntelLEO can be radically enhanced by advanced technology, exploiting, in an innovative way, a synergy between:

    (a) services for efficient management of collaborative learning and knowledge-building activities and access to and supply of shared content, and

    (b) services for harmonisation of individual and organisational objectives.

    Core services:

    (Human) Resource Discovery

    Learning Group Composition

    Collaboration Traceability

    Learning Resources Provision/ Discovery

    Learning Path Creator & Organisation Policy

    So, there will be a lot of technical work from our team to develop these services while using portfolio tool, repositories and collaborative learning systems.

    Closely related, two types of activities take place – the tools will be developed and tested within 3 business cases:

    - Collaborative learning and knowledge-building strategy within large industrial enterprise (Volkswagen – Strak – the Computer Aided Styling of automobiles) and university
    - Harmonising organisational objectives with learning and knowledge-buiding activities between business network (INI d.o.o.), university and customers
    - Harmonisation of individual and organisational objectives within in-service teachers and university

    Partners in IntelLEO project:

    Institut fuer angewandte Systemtechnik Bremen GmbH
    Volkswagen AG
    Tallinn University, Centre of Educational Technology
    Estonian Teachers’ Association
    Zentrum fuer Soziale Innovation, Austria
