Call for papers are invited at EC-TEL 2012 Seventh European Conference on Technology Enhanced Learning which will be organized from 18 to 21 September, 2012 at Saarbrücken, Germany.
This conference is a unique opportunity for practitioners, researchers and policy makers to address current challenges and advances in the field. Owing to the EC-TEL, established and emerging researchers as well as entrepreneurs, practitioners and technology developers explore new collaborations, strengthen networks and compliment their core experience.
Promoting and developing 21st Century Learning for 21st Century Skills which meet contemporary needs and challenges is a key priority within the European Union and constituent countries.
Crucial questions need to be addressed including:
• How can schools prepare young people for the technology-rich workplace of the future?
• How can we use technology to promote informal and independent learning outside traditional educational settings?
• How can we use next generation social and mobile technologies to promote informal and responsive learning?
This focus on skills, practice and impact is reflected in EC-TEL itself. EC-TEL 2012 specifically appeals to Technology Enhanced Learning innovators, creative practitioners and other representatives from e-learning more generally.
Extended demonstrations of prototypes and ‘TEL in action’ will spark discussions between different but complimentary groups, and be animated and disseminated through live internet radio broadcasts. EC-TEL 2012 will examine and improve the transitions between research, practice and industry.
Contributions are invited for demonstrations, workshops and project meetings as well as academic research papers. A doctoral consortium will also be organized concurrently with the workshops.
