Submitting an Abstract or Proposal

The conference theme Putting eLearning to Work in Defence Environments focuses on the principles and practicalities of implementing e-learning programs in Defence contexts.

We welcome, by way of an initial abstract or proposal, submissions that address the conference sub-themes of security, change management and student engagement. This may be through analysing theoretical and practical issues or by providing case studies of 'good practice' and 'lessons learned'.

• Conference Paper (20 minutes duration);
• Reports and Case Studies (15 minutes duration); and
• Student Presentations (up to 15 minutes duration) we intend to offer special opportunities for students to provide presentations relating to their e-learning experiences.

Discussion time will be provided in each session.
