University towards e-learning - Free ebooks

The growing use of the instruments of information and communication technology in the world of education has enriched models of learning with new potentialities. Education provided through Internet has opened up knowledge and learning to students distant from lecture halls (people who work, the disabled, prisoners, etc.)
European universities have met the challenge of modernisation by intensifying their own e-learning activities – this is work in progress where obstacles and forms of resistance are not absent. The institutions of government are also encouraging the establishment of e-learning in higher education by supporting the digitalisation of the infrastructures of their countries and encouraging the spread of a culture that is open to the new successes of the digital industry.
The ELUE project (E-Learning and University Education) belongs to this context. Belonging to the initiatives to promote e-learning launched by the European Commission, its aim is to photograph the diffusion of e-learning in the university world in Finland, France and Italy. This volume presents the results of a joint survey carried out by the Conference of Italian University Rectors (CRUI), the Conference des Presidents d’Université Française (CPU), and the Finnish Virtual University (FVU) on the universities of their respective countries.
