Abstract

The idea of creating virtual professional learning communities has been the starting point for a set of three online workshops that have been organised by the European Schoolnet and the Centre of Educational Innovation & Technology of Delft University of Technology. The results show a promising potential for online workshops in forming communities of professionals. With the workshops a total large group of 49 people all over the world have been reached who have actively participated in discussions with each other. Some of them have even participated in two or three workshops. Many evaluation respondents say that they have made contacts during the workshop that will last after the workshop. The results of this evaluation can be used to improve the workshops' technology and organisation.
