OUR
VISION OF eGEOCampus
eGEOCampus is the first Spanish Earth Science
eLearning Platform. Its primary task is to provide Spanish
speakers with high quality technical training in anything
related to Earth Sciences.
The first of the eGEOCampus training programs is eMasterGIS,
a master in geographic information systems. The schedule is
included in this demonstration. In the future we hope to increase
the number of programs providing GIS related courses in environmental
studies, geography, databases, etc, which predominantly benefit
all Earth Science professionals connected to eGEOCampus.
One of the principal objectives of eGEOCampus
is to enable Spanish speaking students to globally share their
end of course projects or theses, through the use of our platform,
thus providing a higher quality of global learning for all
users.

Main
Aims of eGEOCampus |
| |
|
Following on from the aforementioned
points, eGEOCampus has developed this triple objective: |
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
1. To convert itself
into a focal point for the training and management of
all Earth Science related topics in Spain and Latin
America.
2. To promote the platform, encouraging
the use of the content, data, programs and the know-how
of the creators/participants.
3. To expand and enhance the services
offered by the participating members/associates to the
internet community. |

|
|
| |
|
Obviously a project
of this magnitude needs to be developed on a large scale,
but in individual phases to ensure a successful overall
completion.
Consequently, in this initial phase,
eGEOCampus will be able to: |
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
- Validate the chosen
learning platform.
- Create a group of learning formats that stand individually,
but with the final objective of launching the first
GIS eLearning Master and the introduction of an internet/intranet
learning culture.
- Provide a stable group of members/associates to support
the platform with essential knowledge and experience
who will be of vital importance to the project.
- Conduct alternative projects, especially in Latin
American countries.
- Provide the basic knowledge/know-how necessary for
the continual construction of the Earth Science website,
as shown in the following diagram: |
