Networked Learning 2010 Pre-Conference

There is a Pre-Conference sessions that was just posted for the Networked Learning Conference 2010:

PhD course on ‘Networked Learning and the Net Generation’ 1-2 May, in Aalborg, Denmark

This looks like a wonderful event, and as I just emailed to one of the organizers, I wish this would have been communicated earlier, as those of us coming from a distance (I am in New York traveling to Denmark) have most likely already made travel plans. Wish I can attend this, but it was announced too near the conference to make flight changes.

Somewhat ironic, given the topic of the event.

Networked Learning Conference 2010 – Early-Bird Registration

Early registration for the Networked Learning Conference 2010, #NLC2010, in Aalborg, Denmark, in May is about to end (early-bird registration ends 26 February). As this conference is already a little pricy (and outright expensive from the US), every little savings helps.

As this conference is subtitled A research-based conference on networked learning in higher education and lifelong learning, I am really looking forward to learning together. It will be great to see some of my colleagues (again) there and getting feedback on my paper, Autoethnographer Communities of Practice, as well!

I am thrilled to share the news that my paper, Autoethnographer Communities of Practice, has just been accepted to present to the 7th International Conference on Networked Learning NLC2010! This conference is at the beginning of May in Aalborg, Denmark. It will be the second time I have presented in Europe, and the first time I am presenting there as the single author / researcher on a paper.

I am really looking forward to finally meeting some of the people whose work has helped my own thinking in the Technology Eenhanced Learning (TEL) / Networked Learning field, including Etienne Wenger (one of the keynotes), David McConnell, and Chris Jones. I am also excited to share some of my research findings about studying those who engage in autoethnography, as this is something that does not seem to be frequently used in the networked learning research community.

I will speak more about this as the conference date approaches. Hope to meet some of the other networked learners I speak to online and have never met F2F.
