The MuStLearnIT project targets primary schools in different European countries operating under special conditions such as multigrade and remote schools, where a few teachers (or even a single teacher) are responsible for teaching a small number of pupils of different ages and grades a variety of lessons and where often there are no “subject specific expert” teachers for a number of lessons.
The project’s major objective is the design, development and application of an integrated distance learning model for learning, to aid multigrade primary schools by sharing resources such as teaching staff (local and remote) and by taking the utmost advantage of any existing technical infrastructure.
The model is supported by ICT and is applied in synchronous and asynchronous modes using videoconferencing and other CSCL tools and specially designed educational activities based on appropriate educational software.
