The aim of the CONCEDE project is to improve the effectiveness of teaching and learning by enhancing the quantity and quality of user generated content that can be incorporated into higher education. The project specific objectives are:

• to investigate the state of the art in relation to quality of UGC, with specific regards to higher education
• Developing an holistic multi-layered quality framework of user generated content to be introduced effectively into higher education,
• test the acceptance and the effectiveness of this mechanism into higher education involving primarily teachers and learners and
• foster cross-fertilisation of experiences
• Create a platform for dialogue for all those aiming at promoting UGC in education, i.e. a stakeholders’ roundtable aiming to
• facilitate and support networking and collaboration among existing initiatives into universities, European and international projects along with a significant effort to
• involve international agencies, as well as organisations dealing with quality assurance.
