Call for Papers

TECHNOLOGY, PEDAGOGY AND INNOVATION


8th Annual EDINEB International Conference

June 20 - 22, 2001

EDHEC School of Management, Nice, France

---------------------------

The EDINEB 2001 International Conference is designed as a learning
platform for innovation across the boundaries between management
education, knowledge creation, technology or business. Our aim is to
spark new ways of understanding how these boundaries can be transformed
into opportunities for collaborative learning and high performance. 
It is no accident that this year's conference is located in Nice. This
magnificent city stands out as a center for high technology. The
conference is hosted at the EDHEC School of Management, Nice campus. The
environment we have chosen offers a unique opportunity for assimilating
contrasting professional perspectives and reflecting on what matters
most in sharing knowledge.

We welcome abstract submissions on the following themes:
* New learning technologies in business and business education
* Distance delivery of innovative business education
* Self-learning skills as a key factor of success in distance learning
  programs
* Individual and collaborative learning: What's specific when you can't
  meet?
* The design, implementation and use of collaborative tools such as 
  e-mail, discussion groups, chat systems, whiteboards and shared
  workspaces.
* Methods of active learning
* Creative / innovative pedagogy in management education
* Team performance, team learning and team assessment
* Knowledge creation & (Re)design of knowledge management
* Research on the value of technology driven business education

The EDINEB Network
At the December 1993 EDINEB Conference (Maastricht, the Netherlands) the
EDINEB Network was founded to serve as a continual basis for exchanging
experiences and knowledge about educational innovation in economics and
business. Among the activities of this Network are workshops, providing
expertise about innovations, publications (Series on Educational
Innovation in Economics and Business, published by Kluwer Academic
Publishers), international conferences, and other forms of exchange.
Network members have served both education and industry in the
development of innovative practices across Europe and the United States.
