http://www.academic-conferences.org/ecel/ecel2007/ecel07-home.htm
Copenhagen Business School, Copenhagen, Denmark
Keynote Speaker: Dr Pernille Rattleff and Dr Lars Birch Andreasen, Danish University of Education, Denmark "Challenges in Implementing e-Learning at Universities"
The European Conference on e-Learning is an annual event and the Copenhagen Business School (CBS) has pleasure together with Academic Conferences International to host this year’s conference. We invite researchers, academics and practitioners to present their research findings and work in progress, to come together and exchange ideas and experiences within the field of e-Learning. We aim at creating a conference, with a relaxed Scandinavian atmosphere that has high quality discussions that emphasise subject matter and content.
Copenhagen Business School has around 14,000 students and is thus one of the largest business schools in Europe student wise. The campus is a city campus located in Frederiksberg in a busy business area only a few kilometres from the city centre of Copenhagen. Though Frederiksberg has numerous historic buildings and sites, the majority of the business school buildings today are new and in modern architectural style, some which have won prestigious prizes. The building at Solbjerg Plads will host this 6th ECEL conference and it is conveniently located next to the Frederiksberg shopping centre and the metro station. This provides easy access to the city centre, nearby hotels as well as the airport.
The conference program includes invited keynote speakers, paper presentations in multiple streams, a panel session, as well as trade exhibitions. We invite you to participate in the conference as well as to submit an abstract to a full paper (please see the Call for Paper information). An international review board and an anonymous review will ensure high quality of the accepted papers

London, Oct 10-12th, 2007; Handheld Learning 2007 - "Learning While Mobile"
http://www.handheldlearning2007.com
The call for papers for this years conference is now open.
With Internet access available to a broad spectrum of technologies including mobile phones, gaming consoles, ultra-mobile PC's, mp3 players and handheld computers, the opportunities for seamless, universal access to personalised learning have never been so close. There is a subtle shift from what has been known as "mobile learning" to "learning while mobile". This paradigm brings vital questions that many leading policy makers, thought leaders and practitioners are not only willing to explore but to share their experience and knowledge.
Conference topics include:
Who will supply education in the 21st Century?
Learning vs Education
Upload vs Download
Inclusion
Motivation
Co-constructed Learning
Serious Gaming
Harnessing Technology = Control or Empowerment?
Personalisation: 'My Learning' vs 'Our' Learning vs 'Their' Learning
