Call for papers
The second Designs on E-Learning international conference in the use of 
technology for teaching and learning in art, design and communication will 
be hosted by the University of the Arts, London on the 12th, 13th and 14th 
September 2007.
The full conference web site will be launched during November 2006. 
The conference aims to cast light on established practice in the field, on 
innovations in teaching and learning with technology, on the challenges 
and successes presented by the visual nature of our discipline, and on the 
benefits of online and blended learning.
It aims to build on the success of Designs on eLearning 2005 and on the 
subsequent Online Conference and Symposium in disseminating and promoting 
good practice, primarily but not exclusively, in art, design and 
communication.
We are also interested in receiving relevant submissions on eLearning from 
authors who are not in the Art, Design and Communication sector.

Conference Themes include
1. Balancing acts: traditional practices and technologies in Art, Design 
and Communication
2. Reflective practice in eLearning
3. The role of Virtual Learning Environments in Art, Design and 
Communication
4. Designing for change in institutions
5. Innovations in teaching and learning in Art, Design and Communication
