Join the 2016 EDEN Annual Conference in Budapest!
The European Distance and E-Learning Network (EDEN) will host its 2016 Annual Conference Re-Imagining Learning Environments, June 14 - 16 in Budapest, Hungary.
Our current age has been framed by the concept of the “information age.” Many long-standing societal, business and institutional systems have either lost their relevance or have transformed beyond recognition. Education does not stand untouched, frequently operating in unstable economic and policy environments.
We look afresh and identify new models and approaches for education (OER, MOOCs, PLE’s, Learning Analytics). For learners this has also been a great leap - the networked learner is sharing voluntarily and for free, spontaneously with billions of people.
In the new learning environments the core players and stakeholders – learners, educators, government bodies, educational and learning institutions - increasingly acknowledge the chance for constructive and positive changes. Perhaps there are new business models, new policies, and different ways to understand technological influences, the networked society – the learning environment, in its widest sense.
The responsibility of the scholarly community includes widening the concept of learning and its role in society and exploiting transformative knowledge to drive social change. We need renowned reflections of practice that support paradigm-changing transformations based on systematic knowledge.
Join the conference in Budapest to share your research projects and experience! Networking and interactivity, sharing, and discussion will be core aspects of the conference experience.
Submissions that relate to the conference scope and one or more of the conference themes are welcome in paper, poster, workshop, training, demonstration, and synergy formats.
