We're really happy to announce that ICLS2008 looks like a success on at least two fronts. First, the number and quality of proposals and of accepted papers, symposiums and workshops has exceeded our expectations. With more than 200 presenters this will be the most informative ICLS ever. There will also be 9 keynotes: 1 opening keynote by Yrjo Engëström and 4 duo keynotes on Games in Education and Society, Learning Sciences and Teaching, Learning Sciences and Technology, and the Effects of Learning and Education on Society (http://www.isls.org/icls2008/Keynotes.html). Also, with more than 400 registered participants from around the globe, this will also be the best attended and most international ICLS ever.

This is your chance to meet and hear presentations from the top names in the fields of learning sciences, collaborative learning and so forth and to discuss and network about these topics with colleagues from around the world. Thursday June 26, is our Game Day, with keynotes and many presentations and workshops about gaming and learning.
