Lines connect the coordinator with its partners. CORDIS does not always give exact coordinates for projects before 2014. These points are placed at city or country level.

Project objective

Increasing the basis skills and educational levels of underachieving adults through improved use of ICT is a key priority in the EUâ s strategy for combating social exclusion and meeting the skills needs of employers. Combining the use of e- and m- learning with Personalised Self Directed Learning is an under-researched challenge that has the potential to make basic and transferable skills learning much more effective.Building on existing research, the project will establish an underpinning educational philosophy (pedagogy) and a range of appropriate resources for the delivery of Personalised Self Directed e-learning and m-learning to support basic adult literacy, numeracy and language learning. The project will be delivered by a transnational research team with complementary expertise in cognitive psychology, androgogy, learning design for ICT-based resources and human-computer interaction.
