The project was completed last November and received excellent feedback from the project reviewers. The project included 35 deliverables. CELEBRATE was EUN's biggest project last year. More than 900 teachers registered in the demonstration portal at http://demoportal.eun.org and participated in the pilots that evaluated 1,350 learning objects developed by the project partners. CELEBRATE stands for Context eLearning with Broadband Technologies and aimed to demonstrate the best use of broadband technologies in Education. The 30-month demonstration project was co-ordinated by European Schoolnet and supported by the European Commission's Information Society Technologies Programme (IST).The project was specifically concerned with developing and accessing digital multilingual learning objects and assets across Europe and to ensure their interoperability by following up-to-date standards. To achieve this aim, European Schoolnet, together with some partners in CELEBRATE, set up a brokerage system to support a European Learning Network, to serve as the backbone to which Client Learning Content Management Systems can connect. The project endeavoured to promote the digital literacy of pupils in both primary and secondary schools to acquire key skills for the digital age, such as collaborative working, creativity, intercultural communication and problem solving. On the CELEBRATE portal, examples of the learning objects during the project are available. Around 1350 Learning Objects developed within the project were evaluated by 319 schools and 775 teachers in six countries. European Schoolnet is currently looking into how to make the learning objects available freely to schools in Europe.
