Current and strategic ideas
Ambitious aims
To build up the world leading video scientific online service that will change the current scientific education and universities model
Free access to the lectures from well known conferences
Free access to lectures from high reputation universities
To allow free and unlimited access to high quality scientific lectures from the prominent lecturers, universities and conferences around the world
To open to the researchers and students from poor, underdeveloped and third countries the access to the expensive conferences and university programmes
To enrich the learning experience with the most advanced content technologies, media and devices
Global Impact
Impact to scientific communityTargeting the scientific community
Research projects
Conferences
Impact to industriesKnowledge transfer and training
Impact to societyFree and open, accessible to everyone
Widening the scope
How?Combining the three communities - Leaders in their field
EU universities – OpenCDN base+ semantic technologies and services on the top
OCWC – standards, curricula, content
Opencast– content gathering/coding/channeling software
EU funded research project (3-4 years, from 3M to 10M Euros)
New business models
New open training organisational models
Integrated solution (gather-organise-channel-comment)
Semantically rich services including
Funding options
EU funds from:ICT RTD programme
CIP PSP programme
Joint research funds like Eureka
Support from national funds in Europe
Support from investorsSome expression of interest already
What are our strengths?Deep involvement in EU co-funded research
JSI: 111 institutions only on EU RTD
EU wide visibility
Strategic decisions by many academic institutions to go “open”
Coherent and established group of institutions in PascalStill 4 years of funding
Representatives of the most active institutions worldwide and the most prominent communities
complementariness
Excellent research track record (+ links) on content handling/understanding

ICT programme - DLObjective ICT-2009.4.1: Digital libraries and digital preservation
a) Scalable systems and services for preserving digital content:
b) Advanced preservation scenarios:Methods and tools for preserving complex objects,
Intelligent digital curation and preservation systems able to learn, reason and act autonomously,
c) Innovative solutions for assembling multimedia digital libraries
Research under this Challenge should take into consideration relevant technologies and other results from successfully completed or ongoing projects.
IP/STREP: EUR 56 million with a minimum of 50% to IPs
NoE and CSA: EUR 13 million;
Expected Impact
Significant advances in the ability to offer easily customisable access services to scientific and cultural digital resources, improving their use, experiencing and understandings;
Reinforced capacity for organisations to preserve digital content in a more effective and cost-efficient manner, safeguarding the authenticity and integrity of these records;
Significant reduction in the loss of irreplaceable information and new opportunities for its re-use, contributing to efficient knowledge production;
Leading edge research in Europe strengthened through restructuring of the digital libraries and digital preservation research landscape. Leveraged impact of research results.

Objective ICT-2009.4.2: Technology-enhanced learning
Learning in the 21st Century: large-scale pilots for the design of the future classroom (exploring both technology and teaching practices, for teachers and students, their orchestration for specific, justified age groupings or subjects), supporting individualisation, collaborations, creativity and expressiveness in more active, reflective and independent learning activities. Research should address innovation in learning and teaching, the underlining change processes, relevant new summative and formative assessment methods and novel solutions supporting the active participation of a wider community of stakeholders contributing to student’s growth.
