POLE addresses the needs for better understanding the relationships between lifelong learning policies and practice and the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). The project aims at elaborating answers about the ways that ICT can enhance and amplify the results of lifelong learning policies, especially in the framework of the eLearning Initiative and following the recommendations in the Memorandum of Lifelong Learning.

POLE is addressing Innovation and ICT in Lifelong Learning as its main field of observation and analysis. It adopts a multidisciplinary approach that encompasses pedagogical, organisational, economic and institutional aspects of innovation as well as the technological dimension. It focuses on the observation of long-term policies, practices and business development and utilises the most recent European reports and workplans to build the hypotheses for future developments.

You are devoting your time, energy and expertise to Lifelong Learning policies and practices, so why not join this expert community, which is taking advantage of the most recent reports and agendas of policy makers such as national ministries and the European Union, in order to enrich your understanding in the field? We invite you to join our Thematic Forum that will be available as from November 2002.
