1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A website specifically devoted to the iread has been developed during the first three months of the Project. It will be a valuable tool for the communication among partners as well as to disseminate Project results beyond the Consortium and to a wider audience. This document provides an overview of the project website and its main structure. The website is online and available under the domain https://iread-project.eu/. The website is intended to provide an accessible overview to the project and the people involved, promote engagement with relevant individuals and organisations from industry, academia and practitioners, as well as to share project activities and outputs. During the project duration, the website will be updated by UCL, with the objective of collecting all the latest contributions from the partners (publications, news and events, documents, etc.) and to ensure that the visitor is provided with current and relevant information. As part of the dissemination activities, the Consortium has developed a presentation template to be used both for internal and external communication activities. The presentation template has been made available for partners. 2. WEBSITE INTRODUCTION A website specifically devoted to the iread project activities has been designed and built. The website was developed during the first three months of the project and will be updated regularly (and at least every 2 months) until the end of the project. The goal of the website is twofold: firstly, to disseminate the iread project results to a wider audience; and secondly, to promote the communication between partners and its future market for this new technology. It will contain useful external information like: General information about the iread project, including a description of its goals, scientific objectives and project partners; Blog written by project partners about project activities and topics related to the project goals; Upcoming seminars, conferences, meetings, events; Downloadable project-related media, academic, technical and practitioner publications; Page 3

3. WEBSITE SECTIONS All Project partners have committed to use the logo of iread and added the link to www.iread-project.eu in all possible professional communications, their newsletters to their own customers, email communications, etc. and also in their own websites. This way, the Consortium ensures that all the information is distributed from a single source, and that it does not reveal confidential data. The website, the main source of dissemination in this project, is divided into six different sections: ABOUT (i.e. Home), INDUSTRY, PRACTITIONERS, NEWSFEED, PARTNERS and PUBLICATIONS. Each section can be accessed by clicking on the links of the top menu. The site and its contents will be updated, expanded and improved periodically, both in terms of functionality and in terms of information volume as the project proceeds. 3.1 ABOUT SECTION In the ABOUT section, the visitor can find a short description of the iread project including the main objectives and the expected benefits that the personalized learning technology will bring to the teaching and education sector.
