Call for case studies

The 45th Conference team wish to gather case studies of good practices, successfull or not, on the Conference theme: “Transferring and sharing knowledge in a globalised world: a ULLL responsibility”.

We want to know what your university does to share its knowledge. Why? For whom? With whom? For what purpose? By what means? How? With what risks and difficulties? For what benefits?

The keywords are:

Governance / Policy and Strategies / International ULLL / Partnerships / Social responsibility, Development and Ethics /Business / Technologies, Pedagogy and tutoring in distance and blended learning / Mobility and learning outcomes

All the case studies should include a description and a critical description of the experience/project/course/action.

They will be collected in the form of a White Paper, which willprovide EUCEN members with an overview of the subject. The final document will be published in paper form in autumn 2013. All contributors will receive two copies of it.

It will also be published on the web, on EUCEN and University of Geneva websites, and if wished on contributors institutions website.

Presentations in the Learning Cafés

In addition to the White Paper, some of the case studies will be selected to be presented and discussed during the Conference in the Learning Cafés, a convivial way of sharing experiences. The authors of the selected papers for the Learning Cafés will be contacted and will receive advice on how to share their experience successfully in this innovative format.
