== International projects, looking for cooperations ==
Use several networks to publish about the initiative, start projects and find the right people:
* EADTU = European Association of Distance Teaching Universities www.eadtu.nl
they are the main partner of
* ICDE = International Council of Distance Education www.icde.org
the global network

Others:
*EFODL = European Federation for Open and Distance Learning www.efodl.net

  • Dutch open content, what is available, who is willing to develop more? For example the 30 free courses of the Open University of the Netherlands, www.opener.ou.nl
  • free educational games in the Dutch market, what is available, who is willing to develop more?
  • start asap the G1G1 initiative in the Netherlands, good combination with Christmas gifts
  • use the media to reach the government: what is their opinion? Are they willing to participate?
  • publish in the media
  • pilots in education, on several levels [1]
  • Could we make some user instruction video´s like this youtube_link, for various types of users (kids, teachers, parents), based on a transcript (so it can easily be translated)? I think it would help having this type of vid's in pressentations, and for first time users. What tools (e.g.[2])would this involve and how do we facilitate making and hosting these instruction vid's. Perhaps even known problemens could be explained this way (watch and learn).
