The conference brings together varied groups of people with different perspectives, experiences and knowledge in one location. It aims to help practitioners find ways of putting research into practice and researchers to gain an understanding of real-world problems, needs and aspirations. The 7th edition of this conference is going to be held in one of the world’s most vibrant cosmopolitans. Located in the heart of Asia, Hong Kong is a metropolis with a unique mix of Eastern and Western cultures and has been a prime destination for business and tourism. The favourable location of Hong Kong has increased its desirability of being developed as an education hub of Asia, where quality educational services and diversified learning opportunities are desired by the ever-growing learning community in the present age of globalisation. The conference will bring participants valuable insights in the latest developments of e-Learning which is one of the most efficient learning modes in the fast-changing knowledge world. We look forward to welcoming participants from across the globe and we hope that you will be able to join us. |  |  | |  click icon to visit group | |  type tag: #ICEL | | | Victor Lee, PhD Conference Chair | Paul Lam, PhD Programme Chair | | Important Dates | Abstract submission deadline: | 2 December 2011 | Now closed |  A prizes will be awarded for the best Poster and the best PhD paper | | Notification of abstract acceptance: | 9 December 2011 | Completed | | Full paper due for review: | 20 January 2012 | In process | | Notification of paper acceptance (with any requested changes): | 30 March 2012 | | | Earlybird registration closes | 13 April 2012 | | | Final paper due: (with requested changes) | 27 April 2012 | | | Final author registration date | 18 May 2012 | | Registration News Earlybird registrations closes on 13 April 2012.
