A Learning Hub for Automated Creation-Delivery of Audio-Visual Content. A Success Case Study #83
The Information Technology (IT) Center of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTh) designed and implemented, utilizing on-premises resources, a central platform powered by the latest technology to streamline access to educational resources and Audio-Visual (AV) services. This learning hub offers two key benefits:
- Find and watch videos easily: Search and view engaging, categorized videos on diverse topics, like lectures, conferences, award ceremonies, and research findings.
- Create and share content seamlessly: Professors can leverage advanced AV systems in 105 classrooms and auditoriums to stream live classes, record lectures automatically, and support various teaching methods (onsite, online, blended, or hybrid), reaching students everywhere.
Furthermore, the platform offers transparent and easily accessible information regarding AV infrastructure usage, encompassing guidelines, manuals, and regulations. It serves as a centralized point of contact for all AV-related requests.
This learning hub empowers students and professors alike, fostering a more engaging and accessible learning experience at AUTh.

This paper focuses on the evaluation and lessons learned from the creation and delivery of Open Courses by the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens and other Greek Higher Education Institutions, as well as presents the benefits derived for society, teachers, and higher education institutions. The evaluation was based on two surveys of teachers who participated in the creation of Open Courses and of learners, the general public and students, who participated in Open Courses. The surveys were completed by 57 and 1005 teachers and learners, respectively. The evaluation results show that the Open Courses have received a very high level of acceptance from both teachers and learners.

The Scalability of E-learning Platforms: The NAVOICA case #37
This article discusses the importance of scalability in e-learning platforms, using the Polish NAVOICA platform as a case study. Scalability adapts a platform’s infrastructure to increasing numbers of users and courses. NAVOICA relies on container technologies, orchestration, microservice architecture, and cloud computing, which ensure its flexibility and security. This positions NAVOICA strongly to address the challenges of modern online education, such as the rising popularity of massive open online courses (MOOCs), expanding user bases, and the increasingly widening array of courses.
