Abstract

This paper introduces STELLAR, the Network of Excellence in the field of Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL), funded under the 7th Framework Programme, and illustrates its objectives. Besides, the paper describes how STELLAR has approached the challenges of interdisciplinary working and outlines the key achievements of the Network in terms of developing a strategic vision for TEL research in Europe. Lastly, it provides examples of research areas which should be addressed within programmes of research in TEL.
