On January 22, Prof. Marcelo Milrad, Dr. Aris Alissandrakis, and Dr. Nuno Otero attended the final review of the FP7 EU-project JUXTALEARN. The three year project, running from 2012 to 2015, developed an educational process that included the collaborative creation of videos, where students explain difficult STEM topics by using the juxtaposition of scientific and everyday concepts, as well as software tools as support. The CeLeKT members (including also PhD student Maximilian Müller) contributed by exploring how the created video content could be shared and interacted with on public displays, in order to further increase the students' engagement.

The aim of the new project eSIT4SIP is to use Information and Communications Technology (ICT) more efficiently in school by, for instance, exploiting existing resources and exchanging successful examples. Computers, tablets, apps and programs, networks, mobile phones… Many schools are at the forefront when it comes to ICT resources. However, lecture rooms, furniture and other equipment involved in teaching activities are also resources to be taken into account in this context. "The idea of the new project eSIT4SIP is to see what resources schools have that allow them to pursue different learning activities with digital technologies, including non-digital technologies that support these activities, and to foster an efficient use of all these existing resources", says Dr. Nuno Otero, senior lecturer in Media Technology at Linnaeus University. The aim of the project is that teachers, students and other stakeholders should be able to: • exploit the investments made in IT resources, • gather, document, and exchange successful ideas on innovative uses of ICT at school, • reflect and adopt novel educational models, ideas, and experiences within digital learning, considering the available resources, • address concerns about the maintenance and further development of these resources, such as their sustainability. eSIT4SIP is a short abbreviation of a long project name – Empowering the School IT Infrastructures for the Implementation of Sustainable Instructional Patterns. The project is financed by Erasmus+, the European Union’s programme for promoting international cooperation and exchange within education, youth and sports, and will go on until August 31, 2018. The three participating universities – Linnaeus University, Open University of Cyprus, and University of Education Weingarten in Germany – will establish cooperations with a number of schools in each country.
