>
> This message is a second notice to bring to people's attention two
> events which are happening at the University of Oxford on the 11th and
> 12th April, 2002.
>
> Both events look at the use of IT in teaching and learning, but employ
> different methods of approaching the issues. 'Shock of the Old 2' (a
> continuation of last year's conference) presents a series of papers based
> around emerging themes and problems, whilst 'Beyond Chalk' is a series of
> debates, round-table discussions, and plenary speakers. Whilst 'Shock of
> the Old 2' has HE as its main focus, 'Beyond Chalk' looks at IT in
> education across all sectors: primary, secondary, FE, HE, and lifelong
> learning.
