Releasing the Virtual University for pos-graduation and continuing education - [Barcelos] : Instituto Politécnico do Cávado e do Ave, Dec. 2004

Individualised open and distance learning at the university continuing education and post-graduated education levels is nowadays a central issue. The dynamically changing social and economic environment we live in claims for new approaches to university continuing and post-graduated education. The advanced information and communication technologies together with several applications offer new perspectives, such as the so-called Virtual University. However, the implementation of this concept does not rely just on basic information and communication infrastructure, although absolutely necessary as support, neither on dispersedly developed applications. The added value comes from the higher-level functions to support individualised learning projects. The paper discusses the Virtual University concept and proposes a Market of Teaching Resources as a suppoting environment
