Dear Colleagues,
The 4th International Mobile Learning Festival (IMLF2017) will be held at The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR China. Building upon successes of the previous conferences, we continue to explore Mobile Technologies and Emerging Learning Design in the context of school, higher and corporate education. The IMLF2017 will be located in an exceptional venue for sharing information on contemporary approaches to human development and education at all levels, learning design, mobile learning, e-learning, and Learning 2.0 from around the world. The conference will feature evidence-based developments led by mobile and emerging learning technologies and paradigms.
Tertiary and secondary school teachers, education policy makers, researchers, education publishers and designers, research students, learning technology developers and human capital agencies are all encouraged to attend and engage with colleagues at the IMLF2017. Your participation will contribute to the discussion and exploration of the most important developments in mobile learning and emerging learning technologies and paradigms.
The conference speakers will provide unique perspectives on human learning, and highlight practical enhancement of human agency through embedding of mobile and emerging technologies in learning design.
IMLF2017 will explore concepts, practices and issues that provide pathways for effective integration of mobile and emerging learning technologies in education at all levels and environments such as, open, self-directed and flexible learning, e-learning, blended learning, flipped learning, MOOCs, and socially-networked learning. The focus will be on the four key elements of an effective learning design: Resources, Activity, Support and Evaluation, and engage in examination of enabling conditions and articulation of coherent strategies for advancement of mobile and emerging learning design.
Building on our standard format, which includes Keynote speakers, Invited speakers, Paper presenters and Industry leaders presentations, IMLF2017 will introduce Doctoral Consortiums and Virtual Presentations.
In addition to a special issue of the Journal of Computers in Education, we plan to write the 2nd volume of the Mobile Learning Theories and Applications book to be published by Springer.
Don’t miss the International Mobile Learning Festival!
We look forward to seeing you in Hong Kong in June 2017.
Best papers will be reviewed and included in a special issue of the Springer's Journal of Computers in Education
