There are thousands of different ICT solutions on the market available to be used in our classrooms but in spite of high investments and a market that offers such a variety of products we are still confronted with a low use of ICT to perform innovative teaching and creative learning in the European classrooms.
The IMAILE consortium believes that our actual situation and problems have one common origin – the lack of customised ICT products/ services emerging from the demand side (our European schools).
In order to change this scenario partners in Sweden, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Austria, Portugal and Spain together have developed the IMAILE project based on the PCP method (Pre – commercial – procurement) An instrument recommended by the Commission that stimulates a dialogue between public procurers representing the demand side and industry/ SME as suppliers on the other side.
