The workins sessions will take place in the old Rectorate building, an amazing and very inspiring place to meet and work. These walls, built in the XVIth century, contemplated the student period of literature genious and other important personalities such as Juan de la Cruz, Lope de Vega or Francisco de Quevedo, just to name a few.

Miguel-Angel spent a couple of days at Barcelona. Monday it was a meeting of project SUMA. SUMA is about integrating learning technology via OKI interfaces.

Tuesday it was the Ph.D. dissertatio of Josep Prieto Blázquez, a faculty member of the Open University of Catalonia. The Ph.D. was about an ontology for Virtual Laboratories (VLAb), and the results included an ontology-driven generation of VLab arrangements in Moodle.  Below the Ph.D. candidate respectfully listening the veredict of the committee (luckily, the result was positive).
