Brussels, 03/05/2001 (Agence Europe) - In the framework of the European Commission initiative "eLearning - designing tomorrow's education", EU Education Ministers will invite schools from throughout Europe to participate in the e-Learning/schools of Europe twinning next week, to be held from 7 to 11 May. Called "eSchola: learning together", this awareness-raising campaign on the use of the Internet in schools is being sponsored by the European Commission and in an integral part of the programme of the Swedish Presidency of the Union. eSchola, which replaces Netd@ys for education, is more targeted and more concrete. This initiative will be implemented by the Education ministers in close cooperation with the European Commission. The main goal of eSchola is to demonstrate the potential of information and communication technologies, encourage schools and teachers to exchange good practice and to teach one another. eSchola is linked with the first eLearning Summit on public-private partnerships, to be held in Brussels on 10 and 11 May (see EUROPE of 29 March, p.7).
