This is the project detail page from ECOTEC for REM, an EU DGXIII project from the late 1990's which I worked on.

REM was the project that got me started in web environments for education, along with Martin Owen (now at NESTA Futurelab) and Oleg Liber (now at CETIS).

REM takes a unique approach to tele-learning by creating a rich multimedia environment to support learning through collaboration, interaction and conversation. Implicit in REM’s view of education and training is a belief in constructivist principles of learning for students, teachers and professionals.

The REM project enables learners to collaborate closely by supporting the exchange of a wide variety of experiences and resources with advanced telematics.
