Dear Colleague
Supporting and enhancing learning through the effective use of technology
Notification of forthcoming conference and invitation to present a
workshop at it: workshop proposals needed by 12.00 noon on Monday 8
December 2008
A conference in central London on Thursday 5 February 2009 for all those
engaged in the Further Education (FE) system
We would like to invite you to share good practice at the Thursday 5
February 2009 national launch conference for the eCPD Enhancing Learning
Programme. BDP Learning, the Association for Learning Technology (ALT)
and a consortium of FE partners have been commissioned to deliver the
programme on behalf of the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS).
Many of you will recall the outstandingly successful e-learning
practitioner conferences held in 2005 and 2007 which were organised by
QIA and ALT and supported by partners including Becta, JISC, NIACE, LSN
and CEL. The eCPD Programme launch conference will build on these and
excite and inspire more practitioners to become involved.
If you or your organisation have good practice to share in the use of
technology to support learning, we invite you to submit a proposal to
run a workshop at the launch conference.
Are you interested in presenting at the event?
If so, please complete the attached proposal form and return it to
Hayley Willis (ALT Events Manager) by 12.00 noon on Monday 8 December
2008. A copy of the proposal form is also available at
http://www.alt.ac.uk/docs/feb5form.doc. All submissions will be
acknowledged, and we will let you know the result of the selection
process before Christmas, to give those invited to run workshops plenty
of time to prepare for the event.
For those selected to present, we will meet reasonable travel and
accommodation costs. As in previous years, presenters will make two
identical 45-minute presentations, to include at least 20 minutes for
questions. The event will be organised to allow those giving
presentations to attend two different sessions themselves; those not
presenting will be able to attend four different sessions during the day
thereby maximising the value of the event.
If you are not presenting but would like to attend, please note that
further information about the conference will be distributed widely
later in November. Booking for the conference will open in mid December
from http://www.alt.ac.uk/. To register your interest for the event, and
to be kept informed about arrangements, please join the low-volume email
announcements list at http://www.alt.ac.uk/lists.html.
We do hope you will be able to contribute or participate in what we know
will be an exciting and informative event. In case of difficulty, please
email Hayley Willis at ALT ([log in to unmask]).
Yours sincerely,
Markos Tiris
Programme Director
