Internationell webbkonferens om innovation inom utbildning

Den amerikanska organisationen HASTAC (Humanities, Arts, Science and Technology Advanced Collaboratory) ordnar en internationell konferens HASTAC 2010: Grand Challenges and Global Innovations Conference, april 15-17, 2010. Konferensen är helt nätbaserad med både direktsändningar och inspelade bidrag från ett flertal deltagande universitet.


- This years’ event will focus on grand challenges and global innovations in the form of technologies, research, teaching, and inquiry that can be leveraged across personal, physical, geographical, institutional, disciplinary, and organizational boundaries.  HASTAC 2010 seeks to ask: what are the influence(s) of virtual spaces that can transcend boundaries to impact global innovations?  How will the next generation of digital technologies alter personal, physical, geographical, institutional, disciplinary, and organizational boundaries?  What are the grand challenges in humanities, arts, and sciences that will shape the next generation of global innovation?

Konferensen kommer att använda Google Wave för diskussioner och Second Life som mötesplats.
