Autores: | Gomes, Natália Serrano, María José Fonseca, Carlos |

Resumo: | Internet has made our world, the way we live and educate, more dynamic and virtual than ever, creating greater challenges and new possibilities. In this way, it is important that higher education institutions have, as a priority, the goal of finding effective ways of providing new learning opportunities according to their environment: student characteristics; teacher training; economic crisis and advancing technology in an effort to make learning more efficient, equitable and innovative. At Guarda Polytechnic Institute, Portugal (IPG), we recognize the needs and the opportunities to create and develop new e-education courses in order to engage and motivate students and teachers according to their needs. Thus, we have, in this last decade, developed and implemented a set of institutional objectives with regard to teaching electronic courses which aim to provide intuitive content online courses, easy to access anywhere, any time. The main purpose of this paper is to present our strategies as an institution, vision and goals when we talk about electronic learning. We bring forward what we believe to be extremely important and that must be considered when an organization wants to implement and develop e-Learning. The paper also presents the outcomes and synthesizes the insights collected since when we implemented a mobile learning solution. Findings indicate that building a successful e-learning project depends basically on two components, teachers’ training and students’ characteristics. The focus attention on these two components can create new, successful and powerful opportunities of e-learning. |
