Dear All
Firstly Happy 2024! I hope you have all enjoyed the holiday period and have had a relaxing break.
Re, EC Expert Reviewers: Marcelo and I had a meeting with Angel, our PO yesterday. He has now contacted two further reviewers.
* Markus Vincze: https://www.acin.tuwien.ac.at/staff/vm/
* Davinia Hernández-Leo: http://www.upf.edu/web/davinia-hernandez-leo<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/www.upf.edu/web/davinia-hernandez-leo__;!…> and /http://www.upf.edu/web/tide<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/www.upf.edu/web/tide__;!!DOxrgLBm!E1lfyiz…> @TIDE_UPF<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/twitter.com/TIDE_UPF__;!!DOxrgLBm!E1lfyi…> (see also attached CV)
We can discuss this further at next Friday’s OMT meeting but we would like to initially check with you that there are no Conflicts of Interest or other grounds for objection. If any, please let me know by Friday 12.00 CET. This so:
* Angel can start further procedures with them.
* Thea/Manolis can prepare further for the physical meeting in UK.
Note:
* April 19 is good for both proposed reviewers, but Davinia would need to leave around 14.30/15.00 to catch a plane to Barcelona, so the review may need to start already at 08.00.
* MV has already pointed out to Angel that he had the ER4STEM project (end date: 30 September 2018) with Chronis and Carina - but this is now out of the 5 year timespan for CoI.
Best regards
Shamim

Dear All,
By collaborating with the AugMENTOR team, we have produced the first podcast<https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WxvEEtWPB3DMSiAlPQCXlrN3ypo47MqI/view?usp=…>, which focused on explaining the overall aim of each project, what both projects envisioned to achieve as a change in education, the technologies both projects (augMENTOR and Exten(DT)2) use and the added values of those technologies, the activities that have been carried out up until now and the future plans. Irene Angelica Chounta from the AugMENTOR and I from Exten(DT)2 are the podcasters for episode 1. Please let me know if you have any comments on it. We are planning to release it through our YT channel and embed it in our website.
With regards,
Sagun
