11. Synthesis of points: Second Day
Focus on the use of Web 2.0
▫ Social Networks should support adults’
participation during the implementation of WP4
▫ SN should also play a key role in dissemination:
opening discussions or “tweets” after specific
Newsletter numbers could be a good strategy
(coordinated by the authors of the newsletter’s
articles)
▫ LinkedIn as professional network to disseminate
articles and activities (over every partner network)
▫ Adoption of Googledocs amongst partners for
Meetings (minutes), Monitoring Reports (WP1) and
Quality Assurance (WP2)
▫ Adoption of Flickr as common repository of images
▫ Adoption of Youtube as common repository of
videos

12. Synthesis of points: Second Day
Dissemination &Exploitation Strategies:
▫ The Website: the structure, the contents, strategy
for a multilanguages portal. Agreement on labels
regarding the areas of access for
institutions, trainers, adults; and contents
regarding areas.
 Strategy of Exploitation: area of institutions will
include associated institutions as well as affiliated
institutions. These last are invited to use and adopt
methods proposed by ALICE.

13. Synthesis of points: Second Day
Tying (IMPORTANT) Loose ends…
▫ The problem of Graphic Chart and Guidelines: DLV that are
not connected to specific budget.
▫ Need of redistributing tasks to better adopt the assigned
budget, considering the partners’ competences
 Decision 1: Considering SEED proposal, the partner will take
in charge Graphic Chart and Guidelines to adopt a common
image for all project’s products.
 Decision 2: CIRDFA will take over Website and Booklets EN
proofreading; SREP will take over Adults’ Training Manual
proofreading; Website, Booklets, and Adults’ Training Manual
will be built on the basis of templates given by SEED.

14. Synthesis of points: Second Day
