European project LLP - 2009-2012 -  http://www.opense.net/

The OpenSE project aimed at setting up an infrastructure for teaching, and 
therefore for learning, of computer science through free software and 
its spirit and concept of sharing. It was about gathering students of 
diverse backgrounds in order to make them build on what their predecessors 
have done rather than constantly repeat the same exercises. In addition to 
the interactive aspect between student generations, it allows to enrich the 
knowledge base and educational materials addressing the needs of students.

Besides the LRDE, the project partners were:

coaching in field of free software development.
