- Swiss
Virtual Campus
The Swiss Virtual Campus
program is part of a process aimed at promoting the "information
society" in Switzerland as well as enabling education - in particular
tertiary education - to take advantage of the opportunities now
available through new information and communication technology. In this
respect the program hopes to provide students with a virtual mobility
which will enable them to play an active role in learning processes and
follow high-quality courses on their computers. The principal concrete
aim of the program is to develop accessible teaching modules through
the Internet, in particular for subjects which attract large numbers of
students. In order to take into account the specific needs of the
universities of applied sciences projects might also involve continuing
education and developing a range of services in the field of didactics
and virtual teaching methods, as well as helping to set up didactic,
technical and ergonomic support centers.
