Collaborative Open Network for Education

An ASIA LINK Programme

Abstract:
The CONE project aims to set up an academic collaborative network using multimedia information and systems, specialised for exchange, sharing out, and management of multimedia and multilingual data for education. This network will have an open structure allowing to connect several universities and to use it in a large number of educational need cases. The main activity concerns academic and scientific transfers from Europe to Asia. Secondary activities concern the start of joint PhD guardianships and the development of an applicative platform, which will be realised as an example to apply new knowledge and research results. This network will link 5 European and Asian regions, which master research and academic activities: Hanoi (Vietnam), Phnom Penh (Cambodia), Vientiane (Laos), Grenoble (France) and Torino (Italy). The main target groups will be 10 teachers and around 50 students in Vietnam, 5 teachers and 25 students in Cambodia, 5 teachers and 25 students in Laos. However, secondary targets groups will be teachers and students of other universities and also industrials, in the three emergent countries. The project duration is 36 months.
