The TARGET project releases four deliverables to the public:

D2.1 - TARGET User Cognitive Models : The deliverable presents the cognitive user model of learners in the targeted learning domains (eg: project management) using Cognitive Task Analysis.
D4.1 - Competence Portfolios : The deliverable presents the Organization Knowledge Environment Individual (OKEI) framework for characterisation of contextual competences in the areas of project management, innovation and sustainaible manufacturing. Also included is the analysis of key emerging competences in the areas addressed.
D11.1 - Story Building Framework. The deliverable presents the developed framework to support the content creation of crafted Stories driven by competences
D11.2 - Stakeholder Management. The deliverable contains the content created for the particular stakeholder management related Stories

The Computer Aided Language Learning - Reading Practice project has adopted the TARGET Serious Game component. This is a collaborative project between Portuguese three research partners (two universities and one research institute) and Carnegie Mellon University in the USA. The aim of the project is to develop a tutoring system for teaching the Portuguese langugage for either native or foreign speakers through the execution of actions within a particular context. The TARGET Serious Game provides the situated context upon which the REAP tutoring system is built upon. A paper of the first stage of the work was presented at the SGDA conference held in Lisbon on the 19th September. For more details click here

A forthcoming printed article about TARGET will be published in IRT3000 in the August edition of Slovenia’s most relevant engineering magazine. The focus of the magazine is mechanical engineering, ICT and other technologies related to the fields of mechanical and construction engineering. The media is well positioned at national level, being well known amongst the engineers and the companies from the field.

The TARGET press release is available on the IRT3000 website:
