It traditionally brings together both researchers and practitioners whose aim is to explore, advance and improve e-Learning. ECEL welcomes contributions in a variety of areas related to e-Learning (as per the call-for-papers), from varied groups of people of different perspective, seeking to bring top research and proven best practices together into one location, for the purposes of helping practitioners find ways to put research into practice, and for researchers to gain an understanding of additional real-world problems. ECEL will combine cutting-edge research with practical, real-life problems in business and in society, in order to advance the state of e-Learning around Europe. To achieve this goal, we are inviting researchers and practitioners to present their research findings and new ideas, and practitioners to demonstrate actual products. ECEL 2008, the 7th in the series, will be held in the sunny Mediterranean island of Cyprus, in the famous coastal resort of Agia Napa between 6-7 of November. The conference will be organized by the Department of Computer Science of the University of Cyprus and the venue will be the 5* Grecian Bay Hotel on the beach. Participants who wish to do so, will have the opportunity to explore and enjoy the beauties of this unique Mediterranean paradise. On behalf of ECEL, I would like to invite everyone interested in e-Learning, academics, researchers and practitioners, to join us in this beautiful place and participate in this exciting event. The conference aims not only to serve as a scientific forum for e-Learning but also to offer to the participants the opportunity to come together and explore the possibility of preparing and submitting proposals in FP7 on e-Education and e-Learning.
