> > INVITATION
> >
> > IN-TELE (Internet-based teaching and learning) is a European project
> > led by three academic research groups and two independent research
> > organisations located in France, Sweden, Germany and the United
> > Kingdom. The main purpose of IN-TELE is the development of new
> > solutions for Internet teaching and learning. The project team will
> > also encourage educational collaboration between our partner located
> > in the four participating countries, supervise a joint thematic
> > project on European identity, undertake scientific and commercial
> > dissemination.
> > The IN-TELE Conference offers the opportunity to present and discuss
> > educational and scientific research, and to bring together IT-vendors
> > (Information Technology vendors), educational local structures, and
> > education authorities.
> > We invite you to attend the IN-TELE CONFERENCE 98 and submit proposals
> > for papers, roundtables, demonstrations, posters, hardware and
> > software exhibitions, and to participate in the Collaboration Meeting
> > for IT-vendors, Educational Authorities and Users.
> > Summaries of the proposals will be reviewed by two reviewers for
> > inclusion in the conference program. Selected papers will be included
> > in the Proceedings.

> > TOPIC AREAS
> >
> > The scope of the conference includes the following major topics:
> >
> > (1) Educational uses of the Internet (advantages and disadvantages)
> > The Internet seems capable of achieving what the isolated computer has
> > only begun, namely massive inroads into European Educational Systems.
> > The network means access to unlimited information. The question is, to
> > what extent can this novel approach to information be used for
> > educational purposes. Furthermore, what are the advantages and
> > potential risks?
> >
> > (2) Internet-based construction of social identity
> > By using the Internet it seems possible to avoid direct relationships
> > between individuals. It does not mean that contacts are forbidden, but
> > it is changing their rules. How do teachers and learners, and the
> > population in general, use this tool to reinforce or modify identity?
> > How does the use of telematic networks contribute to elaborate new
> > socialisation areas?
> >
> > (3) Representations of the Internet: expectations and fears
> > The Internet is mainly a mediatic phenomenon. Therefore, the
> > population, including teachers and learners, has developed a great
> > number of representations even without having accessed or used the
> > network. It is interesting to observe what their expectations and
> > fears are as they participate in developing Internet uses, or not as
> > the case may be.
> >
> > (4) National experiences and differences
> > Each educational system has its own specifications. With its
> > world-wide ambition, is the Internet able to induce a behavioural
> > unification concerning teaching and learning? In other words, does the
> > comparison between national experiences allow this unification
> > phenomenon or, rather, does it strengthen cultural differences between
> > countries ?
> >
> > (5) User differences on Internet-based teaching and learning versus
> > traditional lectures
> > How is Internet inducing teaching and learning solutions that are
> > different from traditional solutions? Behind the educational
> > innovations resulting from the use of the Internet, are there very
> > traditional propositions hidden by a novelty mask ? Are the new
> > communicating possibilities via the Internet a true reversal of
> > educational perspectives ? Do the so called " new pedagogies ", from
> > Freinet to Montessori, Steiner and others, know how to make capital
> > out of the possibilities of the Internet ?
> >
> > (6) Learning with Hypermedia
> > The specific logic of all hypermedia documents over-estimates some
> > kinds of educational uses. Interactivity and surfing are not always
> > easy. How can hypermedia products help an educational theory that
> > wishes to be richer than traditional approaches ? Which learning
> > models are accounting for the learner activities and knowledge
> > acquisition ?
> >
> > (7) Lifelong learning
> > The European Union supports the theme of Lifelong Learning. How can
> > Internet participate in developing this project? Several solutions are
> > possible, from developing distance-learning and self-learning, to
> > developing popular education across districts.
> >
> > (8) Partnerships between educational structures
> > This topic is dedicated to people implicated in educational systems
> > that would like to meet each other in order to build European
> > Internet-based exchanges and partnerships.
> >
> > (9) Educational projects with multimedia industries, editors and users
> > The discrepancy between the multimedia products that are proposed by
> > industrialists and the users needs, in particular teacher and students
> > needs, is very often criticised. The purpose of this topic is to
> > encourage meetings between both groups. Thus, people from educational
> > systems will have the opportunity to present their needs, and
> > industrialists will have the opportunity to present solutions that are
> > usable in educational systems.
> >
> > (10) Exchanges and partnerships resulting from the dynamic created by
> > the European Community
> > The European Union is a great driving force for developing
> > innovations. However, because of loneliness and misunderstanding, it
> > is sometimes difficult to have a chance to participate in European
> > programs. The purpose of this discussion group is to present such
> > European programs and to encourage conjoint dynamics to emerge.

> > the topics 1 to 7 (see list).Papers can be presented either in an oral
> > form in a Workshops Session, or in a written form in a Poster Session
> > (see " Posters and Demonstrations ").
> > Several Workshop Sessions will take place in parallel. Workshop
> > Sessions will be defined according to the themes and to the languages
> > of the proposed papers.
> >
> > * Roundtables
> > Roundtables will be interactive sessions between presenters and
> > attendees.
> > Informal discussions will take place on a single topic (Topic 2 /
> > Topic 4) and will be accompanied by simultaneous translation.
> >
> > * Posters and Demonstrations
> > Papers on topics 1 to 7 can be presented in a written form, as
> > Posters. In addition, Posters may be realised on topics 8 to 10 when
> > their content is not adapted to an oral presentation in the
> > Collaboration Meeting.
> > Posters will be accessible for informal viewing during all the
> > conference program. Authors are expected to be present at their
> > posters during the reserved sessions for the exchange of ideas with
> > the conference attendees.
> > Demonstrations (e.g. Web site, CD ROM, Software, School project...)
> > are expected to be shown during the reserved sessions, and may be
> > shown during all the conference if the authors wish to. Demonstrations
> > are welcome for all the suggested topic areas.
> >
> > * Industrial and commercial exhibitions
> > Companies or Institutions offering educational technology products and
> > services (software and hardware, multimedia, hypermedia and
> > telecommunications products and services) are invited to exhibit
> > during all the conference program if they wish to, and especially
> > during the 3 exhibition sessions.
> >
> > * Collaboration Meeting for IT-Vendors, Educational Authorities and
> > Users (10 minutes presentations)
> > The purpose of this meeting is to encourage exchanges and
> > collaborations between industrial or commercial structures and
> > educational structures and users.
> > A first theme (topic 8) will be concerned with possible links between
> > educational structures in Europe, in order to encourage Internet-based
> > educational partnership.
> > A second theme (topic 9) will focus on industry / educational
> > Institutions collaboration on developing educational web sites,
> > software, distance learning tools and structures ...

> > workshop/poster)

> > discussion topic, emphasise the issue and explain why the work is
> > important.

> > if possible, to present the
> > work succinctly in the two other languages.
> >
> > * Conference web site : http://in-tele.u-strasbg.fr/

> > The summaries will constitute a general presentation of the conference
> > in English, German and French. They will be available on a Web site
> > before the IN-TELE conference takes place. Thus, initial discussions
> > will be possible at that time, which should be very useful for
> > interacting on the suggested topic area, especially for the
