SCOPE

Web 2.0 and mobile technologies offer educators new opportunities to shape teaching and learning. These technologies enable users to collaborate in developing collective intelligences by integrating their work with various applications such as wikis, blogs, social networking, bookmarking and digital repositories. Opportunities for collaboration have become ubiquitous thanks to mobile devices such as touchscreen phones and tablet PCs, all linked through the Internet. Learning through Web 2.0 and mobile technologies is all about active and productive input. Educators must also constantly explore ways to meet accompanying challenges such as Internet security, cyber predators, identity fraud and copyright fraud.

The ICT2011 Conference will explore the new and emerging practices required or enabled by Web 2.0 and mobile technologies. The conference offers practitioners, developers and researchers an opportunity to share teaching and learning experiences and explore how these technologies can be used to support and enhance life-wide and lifelong learning.

The ICT2011 Conference Committee invites participants to share teaching and learning experiences of, and insights into, ways that Web 2.0 and mobile learning technologies have supported and enhanced the learning process.
