Globalization and the transition from a traditional teaching model to an open one require the development of innovative organizational structures and pedagogical models to support complex institutional and university systems, combining education, technology, and research.

Although several strategies for establishing new adaptive parameters have been developed and implemented fruitfully, assuring excellence in e-education requires stronger cooperation among open universities in order to create a common quality framework for eLearning systems and their various phases: organization, planning, services delivered, monitoring and evaluation, and research and development.

The Conference will also focus on the e-evaluation, e-assessment, and self-assessment processes that enable both teachers and students to assess the ongoing acquisition of knowledge, as well as to build flexible learning paths.

Moreover, participants will have the opportunity to discuss issues related to the use of digital devices such as education simulators, interactive multimedia blackboards, 3D environments reconstructions, etc., which provide teachers and students with an active and participative role in the learning process, ensuring a higher level of interaction with the educational environment and contents.
