Today, "Digital Systems and Services for Technology Supported Learning and Education" are recognized as the key drivers to transform the way that individuals, groups and organizations ""learn"" and the way to ""assess learning"" in 21st Century. These transformations influence: "Objectives" - moving from acquiring new "knowledge" to developing new and relevant "competences"; "Methods" - moving from "classroom" based teaching to "context-aware" personalized learning; and "Assessment" - moving from "life-long" degrees and certifications to "on-demand" and "in-context" accreditation of...
