------------------------------------------------------------------------ I would remember that the LRE/EGO create Educational Innovation Research is based on the following issues about renewing the e.learning strategies:

a) The most important of contemporary developments in e . learning is How people learn: brain, mind, experience.

The contemporary advances in the study of e.learning sees in contemporary Neuroscience the possibility to provide evidence for many strategies of new e. learning creative development , that have emerged from neurological research, where through Functional NMR , it is showing how learning systems and modalities the use of memory processes changes the physical structure of the brain and, with it, the functional organisation of the mind.

Therefore in LEFO-WEB ( IT ) http://www.narnia.it/lefo/ , we start to open a section on BRAIN & MEMORY , (now in Italian) that can make possible to create innovative curricula at the elementary schooling all over the world. In fact developmental Educational Research of EGO-CreaNET / LRE have shown that young children understand a great deal about basic principles of biology and genetics, and that these capabilities make it possible to create innovative curricula that introduce important concepts for advanced reasoning at early ages. (see :http://www.descrittiva.it/calip/dna/ http://www.circolodidattico-grumonevano.it/) <http://www.circolodidattico-grumonevano.it/%29>

b) Educational Research of LRE/EGO-CreaNET has also uncovered important principles and methods for structuring Mutual learning experiences that enable people to share and use what they have learned in new settings of NETWORKING e.LEARNING (NET-Learning strategies).

As a matter of facts "Mutual Learning or Net-learning " is more adequate for person permanent to adult person and Net learning it is also connected with the changes of work in "e.team-work" and for enterprises in "networking knowledge management innovation" for growing up Digital or Virtual enterprises in an extended Knowledge Society In this case the integration among sociological and economical research has increased understanding of the nature of competent performance and the principles of knowledge management reorganization that underlie Intangible Assets ( i.e. human resource and social capital) to develop skills and and abilities to solve and or to save problems p in a world wide variety of areas, of the post-industrial society named KNOWLEDGE SOCIETY.

Within the new Year (2004) the EGO-CreaNET telematic Association would improve the"VIA" ( Virtual International Agency).

http://www.chim1.unifi.it/group/education/FoundationEGOvia.pdf

This new initiative borns now for developing collaborative studies both : a) on emerging interactive technologies ( for instance ; mobile devices , and wireless Web- communication .. and so on ) and b) on innovative educational & cognitive research , aiming to re-designing "e.learning and hence e.governmental environments", whitin a world wide co-operation yielding new integrated knowledge about the nature of learning and teaching as it takes place in a variety of settings at different levels of educational pour poses , in any case looking to the the transformation of Industrial society in the post industrial knowledge society.

I hope you can be interested in such co-operation promoted through EGO-CreaNET VIA

for giving an important contribution in accelerating and improving the KNOWLEDGE SOCIETY DIMENSION all over the world.

My best wishes for an HAPPY NEW YEAR. Paolo Manzelli FIRENZE 02 /DEC/2004 .
