Workshop "TEL in working context"
13-15 November 2006
Grenoble - France

This Workshop aims to address the main issues on Technology Enhanced Learning and Training in Working contexts. This domain is yet quite few represented in research, despite it is a really important challenge to accompany actors of professional learning and training: apprentices, experts, trainers, policy makers.

The Workshop aims at exploring the potential and / or effective impact of new technologies on the processes of learning and training in professional contexts.

It will allow to identify models of learning and training, and conceptual tools which support the design, use and evaluation of TEL in a range of different contexts.

Principal themes of submission:

Contributions are awaited to cover a large spectrum of issues related to TEL in working contexts, amongst which

• Theoretical frameworks and methodologies for TEL in working contexts: learning, knowledge, skills, gesture, computer modelisation, interaction analysis, feedback...
• Tools and computer devices for the learning and training in working contexts: simulations, training programs, assessment, accreditation...
