2. • Consortium universities developed virtual mobility (VM) curriculum
(modules) for a Master degree (MA) program (field - Education
sciences) in a collaborative way by teachers from consortium
universities;
• Each partner leads the development of at least 2 modules. In total -
a MA study program in Education science composed of 10 modules;
• The modules are developed using the best experience from the
partners’ universities in the field of education, ICT, management and
etc. which means that the program is interdisciplinary;
• It can be used as a unique on-line program or used by modules. It
could be implemented later by each partner individually or in
cooperation with one or two partners.
