IntelLEO - Intelligent Learning Extended Organizations
(2009-2012)
A 3-year international ICT project, funded by the European Commission under its Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) (project No. 231590). It is a Specific Targeted Research Project (STREP) in the area of Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL). The project objective is to develop intelligent technologies to support learning and knowledge-building activities in an Intelligent Learning Extended Organization (IntelLEO). IntelLEO is a new paradigm representing a community that emerges as a temporal integration of two or more different business and educational communities and organizational cultures (industrial, research, and educational). Vladan Devedzic is the representative of his department in the project consortium and the leader of the research team from his department. His responsibilities include participation in specifying an ontological framework to support the IntelLEO paradigm, as well as in defining, specifying, and carrying out a business case that demonstrates the paradigm.
DL@WEB - Enhancing the Quality of Distance Learning at Western Balkan Higher Education Institutions (2010-2013)
A 3-year international project, funded by TEMPUS agency (project SM 511126-2010), with the objective to improve the quality and relevance of distance learning (DL) at Western Balkan higher education institutions. This implies easier inclusion of partner country institutions into European Higher Education Area through improvement, development and implementation of accreditation standards, guidelines and procedures for quality assurance (QA) of DL study programs at national system levels in Western Balkan countries. Vladan Devedzic is the representative of the University of Belgrade in the project consortium. His major responsibilities in the project include analysis of existing European practices and principles for QA in DL, and building capacity for securing adequate resources for QA of DL in the Western Balkan region.
OP4L - Online Presence for Learning (2010-2012)
A 2-year international project, funded by the European Commission within its SEE-ERA.NET PLUS program (project ERA 115/01), with the objective to provide support for advanced, context-aware Learning Process Management (LPM) within Personal Learning Environments (PLEs) as the increasingly important paradigm in online education. The project relies on using Social Semantic Web technologies to generate recommendations for learners, based on their current learning contexts and the state of online presence of members of their social graphs (i.e., network of online connections). Vladan Devedzic is the project coordinator.
