Call For Papers - CFP

in the Classroom, and in the virtual environments

related to teaching: Conference Theme: Technology

and Education: Finding the Right Tool for the

Right Job

The deadline for abstracts/proposals is 1 April 2011.

Where it once might have been enough to only know

about email and PowerPoint, today's wired

educators must know much more. And with

technological advances occurring at lightening

speed it can be challenging to keep up with our

choices. Thus it is more important than ever to

share with our colleagues as we develop

appropriate techniques for using technology in our

classrooms.

In this age of technological innovation, the ACTC

2011 will reach across academic levels to look at

the role of technology and its impact on the

classroom. It combines the use of new technologies

with some new ideas on these issues. The ACTC 2011

will attract a diverse group of teachers,

researchers, practitioners and scholars who are

engaged in the singular goal of meeting students'

educational needs, as students can learn about

crucial issues and become familiar with web-based

learning and the other information technology

tools. The use of technology in the classroom

represents a significant departure from

traditional teaching methods, conducting research,

assessing student performance and assurance of

learning. Moreover, it creates a user friendly and

economically viable environment conducive to

learning in any corner in the world where access

to technology exists.

We hope you can join us in Osaka!
