Abstract

The main purpose of the Virtual Campus for Digital Students - ViCaDiS Project (2007 - 2009) is to assist international cooperation in learning by using social media and open source applications. ViCaDiS facilitates a shift from Institutional Learning Environments towards Personal Learning Environments. Digital students are young adults who have grown up with digital technologies integrated as an everyday feature of their lives. The paper describes the development of an online - mobile phone environment -ViCaDiS - Virtual Campus for Digital Students, as a co-operation between 6 universities from European Union to develop a common online learning environment enhanced with web 2.0 tools for supporting the online international co-operation at academic level. It presents also the evaluation of this new learning environment for digital students. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
