The need for a new generation of
Learning Services
• Current Knowledge-based Society demands a
new model for learning:
– No longer tied to school and/or university context
– More Integrated into work and other life contexts
– Combining formal and informal learning activities
• New learning principles have brought:
– fundamental changes in the way learning and teaching are
conceived not addressed adequately in eLearning so far
• Current learning technologies:
– Do not address sufficiently the requirements for Lifelong learning
(common Competence Models, Assessment Models etc)
[TenCompetence DoW pp.10]

The TenCompetence Approach
• Support
– Individuals
– groups
– organizations
• In
– Lifelong competence development
• By
– Pedagogical Models
– Organizational Processes
– Technological infrastructure
• Using
– Open-source, standards-based technology

Lifelong Competency Development
• Q1: How to model a competence ?
– Generation of reusable competence definitions
• Q2: How to record the existence of a competence?
– Generation of reusable learner or group of learner records
• Q3: How to measure learner’s or group of learners
competence level?
– Competence Assessment Model
• Q4: How to estimate the suitability of Programmes/UoLs/
Resources in respect to a specific competency for a
specific learner or group of learners?
