Learntec will notably hold a session chaired by Martin Wolpers with the title "PROLEARN: Transforming Technology Enhanced Learning", the 15th February 2005.

21st-23th February 2005: 7 th IASTED International Conference on Web-based Education

"The International Association of Science and Technology for Development (IASTED), is a non-profit organization founded in Zurich, Switzerland in 1977. The purpose of IASTED is to promote economic development through science and technology. This goal is achieved through the more than 300 conferences IASTED has organized in over 25 countries around the world. After 25 years, IASTED continues to bring top scholars and members of industry together to develop and share new ideas, facilitate cultural exchange and encourage international unity.

The IASTED International Conference on Web-Based Education (WBE 2005) will be held from February 21-23, 2005 in picturesque Grindelwald, Switzerland. As keyboards replace chalkboards, the Web’s impact on traditional educational theories and practices are increasingly apparent. It has transformed and expanded the conventional boundaries of education. WBE 2005 is aimed to provide scholars, faculty, researchers, and administrators in all web-based educational areas with an excellent opportunity to convene with colleagues from approximately 50 countries and discuss innovative ideas, results and outcomes of research in this new and exciting field.

Nestled in the heart of the Jungfrau region of the Swiss Alps, Grindelwald is an ideal location for any event. Grindelwald offers 360 degrees of breathtaking natural scenery, a relaxing atmosphere, and countless outdoor activities. "

The conference aims to address the main issues of concern within the applied computing area and related fields. This conference covers essentially technical aspects.’ Technologies for eLearning among the topics.

"...the breakneck pace of development in IT, telecommunications, software and services has opened up completely new perspectives for our work and daily lives. Convergence is the future buzzword. CeBIT has reacted to the dynamic changes to meet the requirements of tomorrow's work and play. In 2005 CeBIT will complete its transformation to the world of digital solutions."

"The aim of this event is to share practical examples of how the UK's national policies on lifelong learning are being put into practice at local level, share experiences with other countries and discuss the role of lifelong learning in economic development."

"The EDEN 2005 conference will focus on open, distance and e-learning from the perspective of lifelong learning, with the approach of collaboration and knowledge transfer from all educational sectors, including adult and vocational education. The event will especially address the transversal and intersectoral issues, in particular the role of universities, as well as post-secondary and tertiary further education."

"One highlight of this conference will be how quickly we expect the predicted portability will emerge and what we hope to include in our scenarios for work, school and leisure time. The other is the question what scenarios we envisage to pick its potential benefits for learning purposes."

"A multi and inter-disciplinary approach to learning technologies. Promoting developments in areas at the interface between Technology, Education and Sociology."

29th June - 1st July 2005: I-KNOW '05 - 5th International Conference on Knowledge Management

"The conference focus is on application-oriented research with emphasis on information technologies for knowledge management and new management tools and methods."

"This annual conference serves as a multi-disciplinary forum for the discussion and exchange of information on the research, development, and applications on all topics related to multimedia, hypermedia and telecommunications/distance education."

5th July - 8th July 2005: 5 th IEEE International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies (ICALT 2005)

"Theme : Next generation e-learning systems: intelligent applications and smart design."

"The focus will not be on commerce or political strategies but on the scientifically grounded advancement of technology-enhanced learning. This will include presentations and exchange between other European projects in this area. Showcases will highlight best practice examples emerging from the synergies in the Kaleidoscope research community."

The AIED field is committed to the belief that true progress in learning technology requires combining advanced technology with advanced understanding of learners, learning, and the context of learning. The conference thus provides opportunities for the cross-fertilization of information and ideas from researchers in the many fields that make up this interdisciplinary research area, including: artificial intelligence, other areas of computer science, cognitive science, education, learning sciences, educational technology, psychology, philosophy, sociology, anthropology, linguistics, and the many domain-specific areas for which AIED systems have been designed and built."

25th-29th July 2005: 4 th International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent system

"The technologies, methods, and theories of agents and multiagent systems are currently contributing to many diverse domains such as information retrieval, user interfaces, electronic commerce, robotics, computer mediated collaboration, computer games, education and training, ubiquitous computing, and social simulation. They not only are a very promising technology, but are also emerging as a new way of thinking, a conceptual paradigm for analyzing problems and for designing systems, for dealing with complexity, distribution, and interactivity, while providing a new perspective on computing and intelligence."

"This interdisciplinary conference aims to focus on the exchange of relevant trends and research results as well as the presentation of practical experiences gained while developing and testing elements of interactive computer aided learning. Therefore pilot projects, applications and products will also be welcome"

Convivio network hosts a multi-cultural, pluralistic and multi-disciplinary community, the members of which share the common vision that the development of new technologies should be driven by the needs and desires of people. The primary aim of the network is to bring together the members of this community and to enhance their sense of belonging to it.

"Focusing on eBusiness, eGovernment, eWork, eEurope beyond 2005 and ICT take-up by SMEs and International Co-operation on IST, the goal of e-2005 is to stimulate take-up of Research & Technology Development (RTD) results by industry, in particular SMEs, and the European public sector."

"Research and networking event for researchers, strategists, educators, technologists and practitioners from all over the world."
