An Internet project to achieve curricula harmonisation

Abstract

The increase of student mobility in Europe and in other countries, and the recent attempt to harmonise European curricula at the graduation and post-graduation levels lead towards an increasing co-operation among universities to develop educational modules with a common background (Ruffio, 2000). This paper describes a project developed in the framework of a European Thematic Network. The educational modules developed are installed in a WWW server and can be accessed by students and teachers. Results obtained through a pilot course in three different countries are presented and suggestions concerning course improvement are given in order to build a virtual university
