E-STEP | Project Conference and Proceedings 5

Introduction

At the end of the E-STEP project an International Conference was organized in

order to demonstrate the main outcomes of the project to a wider audience

interested in the topic of parental engagement through the use of social

networking tools. The E-STEP Conference, as it was called, aimed at the

participation of key stakeholders and decision makers and gave the chance

to the consortium to present the outcomes of the project, its findings and

recommendations to a large, international and much targeted audience.

The E-STEP Conference was hosted by the 8th International Conference in

Open and Distance Learning 2015 “Innovation and Research in Open & Dis-

tance Learning and in Information Communications Technology”. CTI and EA

were responsible for the organization of the event in Athens on 7th Novem-

ber 2015 and all partners contributed by inviting people from their countries to

share their experience from their participation in the project. Upon registration,

the participants were provided with conference materials and conference pro-

ceedings in digital format, leaflets, the E-STEP Exploitation Guide, etc. At the

end of the conference, certifications of attendance were given to participants.

The conference also facilitated the E-STEP consortium to design possible fu-

ture exploitation scenarios from the activities and products developed during

the E-STEP life cycle.

The organization of the E-STEP conference started 4 months beforehand. After the 6th project meeting in Athens, the preparations started. An electronic invitation (Figure 2) was prepared in order to advertise the event.The e-invitation was uploaded onto the E-STEP home page of the website, as well as posted on the news section, on the E-STEP Facebook page and on the website of the 8th ICODL Conference.
