Category Standard

N-TUTORR is a verified, major national transformation program in Ireland's higher education sector, funded by €40M from NextGenerationEU. While the project demonstrates high real-world utility and massive institutional reach (7 Technological Universities, ~100k+ students), the submission itself was of very low quality, containing exaggerated claims ('most people have used my product') and incorrect financial terminology ('marketcap'). The score reflects the high verified value of the project, significantly penalized in the 'Response Quality' and 'Traction Quality' factors due to the submitter's poor inputs.

Project Details

Description
The N-TUTORR programme delivered transformational change in partnership with Ireland's Technological University sector during its formal project timeline from 2022 to 2024. It continues to engage and empower learners from across society to develop skills, knowledge, and sustainability competencies through an inclusive digitally supported open access infrastructure which transforms learning and teaching across the sector. N-TUTORR supported educators themselves develop the skills needed to work effectively in a transformed teaching and learning environment. They enable the Technological University sector to meet and address regional and national needs for digitisation, to cater for 21st-century learning and research, and to ensure that this rapidly evolving sector is sufficiently equipped to effectively deliver on the national strategic policies for Higher Education.
