The healthcare industry is constantly changing to incorporate new advances in science and to address new needs within society. Recent developments in communication technology have greatly facilitated the exchange of information and expertise. Telehealth is an emerging field in which health services are transmitted over a long distance using technologies such as videoconferencing, the Internet, store-and-forward imaging, streaming media, satellites, and wireless communications. Telehealth promises to impact the ways that clinical healthcare, health-related education, public health, and health administration are approached. Telehealth 2007 is intended to be an international forum for researchers and practitioners interested in the advances in and applications of Telehealth to exchange the latest research, results, and ideas in these areas.
Where is the real hard learning in a game?
Can you use a game based learning approach to knowledge transfer or IT training?
Is there more to this than meets the eye?
Used appropriately games will undoubtedly be a useful addition to the learning mix. This one day seminar will explore the subject from the corporate, learner and instructional design viewpoints, illustrating where game based learning really will work – and where it won’t.

The Centre for Excellence in Learning and Teaching (CELT) at NUI Galway is delighted to announce our 5th Annual Teaching and Learning Conference, to take place on the 7th and 8th June, 2007. This year, the title is "Learning Technologies: from Pilot to Mainstream" and amongst the visiting keynotes are the distinguished elearning consultant and writer, Stephen Heppell; Prof. Wim van Petagem from K.U. Leuven, Prof Ray Land from the University of Strathclyde, Prof Michael Kerres (University of Duisberg Essen).
Aimed at academic staff (and suitable also for learning support staff) in higher education, this conference will focus on practical issues in the implementation and use of a range of technologies, providing insight into emerging "good practice," real world challenges and future potential. Our emphasis will be on teaching and learning, rather than technical issues and through a series of presentations, discussions and practical sessions we hope to be able to share experience and nurture networks of practitioners.

In 2003, Community Development and Networking for Capacity Building appeared as the first steps for the development and promulgation of Computer-Mediated Communication, Pedagogies and Technology-Enhanced Learning in the Indian Ocean Region.
The 2005 edition of ICOOL capitalised on the objectives set in 2003, investigating in, and promoting the effective use of, clustering and interoperability of open educational resources (OER), and innovative approaches of team/community building, which link learning, knowledge and innovation and precise methodologies to perpetuate and scale up the results of these efforts.
To bring about a shift in current mindsets, to transform learners from simple interactive customers into reflexive and creative practitioners scripting which will be the main focus of ICOOL 2007.

The Microlearning Conferences are about new forms of learning emerging in the microcontent-based digital media environments. Microcontent is the kind of (very) small pieces (quite) loosely joined that emerged in the last five years, in the Web as well as in the mobile/cellular sphere. As "microcontent"is breaking free from macro-sized silos to form new, much more loosely coupled formats and structures, old forms of e-learning, of knowledge management, and of information acquisition must fail.
