ecoL - Learning Services

ecoL is a spin-off resulting from European networks bringing together Eco Innovation, academics and technology-enhanced practitioners. The main assumption behind ecoL is that ineffective learning hampers the development of eco-technologies. (more on this assumption)

Our review of learning tools available in the area of sustainable development suggests that the existing supply is far from meeting the ever-growing needs for effective learning tools.

ecoL aims to help enhance learning effectiveness through its innovative e-module concept. This e-module acknowleges the priority of learners over content, which translates in:

• an original set of quality criteria (summary table),
  
• an original Drupal-based architecture combining media-rich content and learning services in a flexible and innovative way,
  
• the adaptation of media tools to the resources available to target audiences (example),
• the collaborative design and customisation of the module with the client.

Adopting ecoL solutions to meet the knowledge needs of your organisation is relevant because it:

• Dramatically increases the menu of contents available to your learners: your needs determine the content;
  
• Guarantees a high level of content quality thanks to ecoL's expertise and networks in the domain of eco-innovative technologies;
• Enables greater learner autonomy, individual personalisation of learning itineraries, and closer interaction with the tutor at the same time;
• Offers extreme flexibility for matching the learners' own individual situation: synchronous, asynchronous sessions, 24h on, mobility, time scalability;
• Fosters interactivity between learners and contents, but also between learners and tutors, and between learners, thanks to our collaborative platfom with social web services;
• Guarantees a high level of pedagogical quality thanks to ecoL's expertise, networks and concepts in the area of learning quality;
  
• Guarantees a high level of learning effectiveness and learner engagement, thanks to the learning relationship management system enable by our platform;
• Offers an extended menu of modular options in terms of learning and social web services, as part of the e-module package;
• Allows your learners to validate their knowledge acquisition through a customisable system of tests (multi-level, self-performed or not);
  
• Enables huge cuts in your travel expenditures;
• Enables you to focus your organisation's resources where they are the most fruitful: enhancing your collaborators knowledge, interactivity, and motivation.
