TransACTION, a new European Commission supported project involving Media & Learning Association members had its first meeting in January. This three year long initiative will support the development of a common European interest area in the field of research, innovation, and production of media for learning in Higher Edcation. Its overarching aims are to support academic teaching staff and students in using, adapting, designing, and applying multimedia teaching formats, defining a co-creation framework for media design and production, supporting service staff within the universities in designing, developing, and producing scientifically sound innovative concepts and promoting media formats within the European HE researcher and practitioner community. We will keep you up to date about project activities in this newsletter.
