Free e-version of the VITAE book

The VITAE project in which a European partnership developed and piloted teacher training to implement mentoring of vocational teachers to integrate ICT in their teaching is almost over. A few weeks ago we project partners got handsome paper copies of the book that we have put together which brings together various aspects of the project. Now the pdf version is available for free download from the project website. An idea of the contents can be gained from the contents list below.

Chapter 1: Teacher competence development – a European perspective,
Chapter 2: The VITAE Approach,
Chapter 3: Exploring Web 2.0 and Mentoring as Tools for Lifelong Learning,
Chapter 4: Guided course development on the basis of an e-learning patterns
