Module 7 – How to Implement a Project Successfully<br />
Exercises<br />
Make up an EU project or take a real one (find one on the internet or take one you <strong>are</strong> considering<br />
to apply for) and design a rough dissemination concept by filling in the above table. Try to keep<br />
your considerations and assumptions as realistic as possible. When developing a dissemination concept<br />
you should always consider the dissemination requirements and standards of the particular EU<br />
fund you <strong>are</strong> applying to. Please look up the relevant documents, e.g. application form, call for<br />
proposals, guideline for applicants etc., and analyse what is demanded concerning this issue.<br />
Find an EU funded project in your country, if possible in your immediate <strong>are</strong>a. Take a look at its<br />
dissemination methods, instruments and efforts. Make contact with the organisation leading this<br />
project and try to arrange a meeting at which you can become better informed about the project.<br />
Do also ask the project manager about his / her experiences with dissemination and valorisation<br />
activities and whether or not he / she is able to give you some recommendations and hints about<br />
how to disseminate and valorise effectively.<br />
Hints for additional activities supporting the module implementation<br />
• Use opportunities to leave the classroom or to bring in persons from outside your learning<br />
group as often as possible, e.g. experienced project managers, visit dissemination activities<br />
of EU projects etc.<br />
• Do not forget to work and learn as creatively and actively as possible and use any relevant<br />
and reasonable types of media.<br />
