Notes de l'éditeur
- Social media (or web 2.0 tools) are tools allowing people to build social and business connections, to share information and to collaborate on projects online, empowering a variety of human activities such as learning, interaction, collaboration, knowledge building and economic growth.
- The dissemination and exploitation of projects' outcomes is a key element of LLP projects but, despite the rising popularity of social media marketing, the advantages of integrating social media tools within existing dissemination and exploitation strategies of LLP projects have been disregarded so far.
- The Web2LLP partnership carried out a needs analysis based on a desktop research taking into account 150 randomly selected LLP projects started in 2010. The needs analysis was aimed at understanding to what extent social media are integrated within dissemination and exploitation plans of LLP projects and what kind of social media applications are actually used to promote LLP project activities. Aside from providing an understanding of the state-of-the art as far as the use of social media in LLP projects is concerned, the research highlighted associated needs and provided the starting point for further development of skills and competencesAccording to the needs analysis carried out by Web2LLP project partnership on 150 randomly selected LLP projects, it has been noted:
- The 150 LLP projects considered by the needs analysis belong to the following categories.
- Among the projects taken into account it has been noted that the main dissemination means on the internet was the project website. But 7% of the sample had no internet presence at all.
- As far as the use of social networking sites (Facebook, LinkedIn etc.) the situation is as follows.
- As far as the use of Media Sharing Tools (Youtube, Vimeo, Flickr) in the framework of LLP projects is concerned, the situation is as follows.
- As far as the use of other social media in the framework of LLP projects is concerned, the situation i sas follows.
- The needs analysis carried out by Web2LLP project partnership highlighted that, behind this situation, lay the following reasons:lack of visibility of good practices in the field, displaying what can be achieved in an LLP context through the use of social media. lack of information on how to use social media tools in the framework of a dissemination/exploitation strategy of an LLP projectlack of time to customise a web strategy which can boost dissemination and exploitation of results for LLP projects
- Web2LLP aims at boosting the dissemination and exploitation strategies of LLP projects, so that more coherent, participatory and sustainable project activities can be achieved in the European lifelong learning area. The project emphasises personalised support and tailor-made training solutions for LLP project managers, in order to ensure the full integration of improved web strategies based on social media within existing dissemination and exploitation strategies.More specifically Web2LLP aims at:raising the visibility of innovative good practices in the use of social media for LLP projects, in order to promote a common understanding as to how social media can be used as part of an effective dissemination and exploitation strategy in the framework of LLP projectsproviding customised training based on a bottom-up approach, mindful to the needs of each project, so that managers of LLP projects can develop the necessary skills to promote their results in the way which is more suitable for them
- In order to achieve the set results, the main activities carried out in the framework of the Web2LLP project are:
- A desktop research allowed the identification of those LLP projects in which project managers actively used social media to boost dissemination and exploitation of results. 15 experienced project managers were contacted and interviewed in order to raise the visibility of innovative good practices in the field and to allow a common understanding as to how social media can be used as part of an effective dissemination and exploitation strategy in the framework of LLP projectsThe showcaseincluding video interviews with 15 experiencedproject managers whohaveused social media forthepromotion of LLP projectsisavailableon web2LLP Project website at thefollowingaddress: http://www.web2llp.eu/videos
- On the basis of both the needs analysis and an online survey involving managers of LLP projects the partnership developed educational material meant to provide LLP project managers with a broad overview of the ways in which web strategies and social media tools can effectively be used within dissemination and exploitation plans of LLP projects. The training material developed is meant to be publicly shared, self-paced and available in English, French and Italian. The training material includes:HandbooksVideo tutorials
- The Web2LLP team created these guides in response to the needs highlighted by a desktop research of 150 LLP projects funded by the European Commission, as well as by an online survey involving LLP project managers. Both identified a low uptake of social media for dissemination and exploitation purposes and revealed the need to upgrade skills and improve practices in this area. The handbooks are intended to be used by project managers and members of current or future LLP projects who are unable to attend the face-to-face and online courses organised by the Web2LLP project team, but can also be useful to anyone interested in using digital networks as enablers of sustainable interaction with target audiences. The 3 handbooks created in the framework of the Web2LLP project are available, in English, French and Italian, on Web2LLp project website at the following address: http://www.web2llp.eu/handbooks
