The actions of the project are divided in 5 sequential phases:
A. Setup of the Project
In this phase, the infrastructure and guidelines for the project operation will be set. The technical
infrastructure, such as a project portal will also be set.
The main objective of this phase is to allow the partners to collaborate in the project activities.
B. Analysis
In this phase, the state-of-the-art and the need analysis will be produced by all the partners.
The objective of this phase is to identify the local problems related with the gap between public and
private schooled students and the solutions that technology enhanced learning have produce to address
personalized education.
C. Design and Implementation of Innovative Learning Solutions
In this phase, 6 independent teams will design and implement the proposed solutions.
The objective of this phase is to contextualized existing solutions to personalize learning. Each one of
the teams will produce a different solution, but all focused on help public schooled students to reduce
the gap with their privately schooled counterparts.
D. Testing, Result Analysis and Quality Assurance of the Solutions through a Pilot Experience in
Programming Courses In this phase, the infrastructure and guidelines for the project operation will be set. The technical
infrastructure, such as a project portal will also be set. The main objective of this phase is to allow the
partners to collaborate in the project activities.
E. Dissemination and Technology Transfer
In this phase, the results of the project will be presented and promoted outside the group of original
partners. The objective of this phase is to disseminate to other universities in Latin America, those
solutions that have proven to be effective in reducing the knowledge and skill gap between students.
There is also administrative and coordination activities that are transversal to the mentioned phases. As
the partners work in different learning solution teams with different content for the same overall goal
the main concern is how to get the separate outcomes to be easily connectable with satisfactory quality.
This very important characteristic is assured and controlled by the detailed and structured standards and
guidelines in the quality plan. The quality plan serves as the core for the project work. It defines the
methods for implementation and processes of all the project tasks as well as the methods and deadlines
for the delivery of the outcomes. The quality plan defines the technical guidelines for the outcomes to
assure the outcomes are easily connected and integrated with other outcomes.
