!EARLY BIRD DISCOUNT DEADLINE EXTENDED UNTIL MAY 20th!

This year's conference is jointly organised by The Dutch Webstroom
Community (supported by SURF Platform ICT in Education) and the DIVERSE
network.

DIVERSE is the premier event in the world on all aspects of video and
videoconferencing in education - teaching, research, management etc -
including the convergence of these technologies with online
technologies, and the emergence of new possibilities such as
telepresence learning and teaching, interactive television, computer
games techniques, and wireless and handheld access to live or archived
moving images.

DIVERSE has established itself as a high quality event with excellent
opportunities for formal and informal networking with some of the
world's leading experts in the field. DIVERSE is always a very friendly,
high quality event, and this year there is the attraction of
accommodation on boats in Amsterdam harbour (or on land for those with a
fear of water!) And of course Amsterdam is one of Europe's great
destinations with much to see including the wonderful Van Gogh permanent
exhibition.

So whatever your interest in video and/or videoconferencing, whether
sophisticated or simply fit-for-purpose, this is the leading conference
in the world.  It attracts teachers, researchers, academics, learning
technologists, support staff etc.  Although it has a strong focus on
higher education, staff from other education sectors, public and
private, are very welcome to present or just attend. We guarantee you
will not be disappointed.

4 keynotes speakers will share their insights during the conference:

-> Professor Steve Molyneux: director of the UK E-Learning Lab and
formerly Professor of Advanced Learning Technologies at the University
of Wolverhampton;
-> Dr. Erik Huizer: director of business development for NOB Cross
media facilities, Professor of Internet Applications at Twente
University;
-> Professor James L. Morrison: Professor emeritus of Education,
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. formerly Editor-in-Chief
The Technology Source, Editor-in-Chief of the journal Innovate;
-> Professor Chris O'Hagan, Learning Consultant and Emeritus Professor
of Educational Development, University of Derby, UK.

There will be around 40 keynotes, panels, workshops and
papers/presentations, arranged in themed strands as well as full plenary
sessions.

Looking forward to seeing you in Amsterdam,

Chris O'Hagan
[Conference Chair]

Johan Oomen, Pieter van Parreeren, Tom Visscher
