Research
Network
The D-ChallengHE HUB is organised into interdisciplinary research groups (RN) that share the same interests, passions and research objectives through a fertile knowledge exchange and virtuous collaboration. The groups organise regular meetings between their members, are open to participation by all and play an essential role in animating the HE research observatory.
Each group has one or more coordinators that animate the discussion and collaboration within the group.
Research networks are focused sufficiently to motivate people and to enable them to work effectively on specific topics. They meet in a very smart workshop to favour active participation, intellectual debate and the exchange of ideas.
Currently, there are seven active groups. It is possible to promote new groups by sending a program of activities and indicating the promoters’ names and a short bio

RN.1 New Role of HEIs in Front of Globalisation and Global Crises. Values, Mission And Goals For The Future Of HEIs

Elearning standards
The project starts from the observation that, currently, the academic community perceives that it’s still difficult to define elearning standards able to inform academic governance and stakeholders about the quality of e-learning processes.
D-ChallengHE recognises the need to produce and validate a series of new quality assurance standards that consider the qualitative dimension of educational interaction in online learning environments and the need to communicate best practices at European level.
The definition of these standards relies on the intersection among policy, technology, education, society, and the labour market.
