Deryn Watson and Jane Andersen Editors INTRODUCTION The role of a Preface is to introduce the nature of the publication. The book that emerges from an IFIP Technical Committee World Conference on Computers in Education is complex, and this complexity lies in the nature of the event from which it emerges. Unlike a number of other major international conferences, those organised within the IFIP education community are active events. A WCCE is unique among major international conferences for the structure that deliberately ensures that all attendees are active participants in the development of the debate. In addition to the major paper presentations and discussion, from international authors, there are panel sessions and professional working groups who debate particular themes throughout the event. There is no doubt that this was not a dry academic conference - teachers, lecturers and experts, policy makers and researchers, leamers and manufacturers mingled and worked together to explore, reflect, discuss and plan for the future. The added value of this event was that we know that it will have an impact on future practice; networks will be formed, both virtual and real -ideas will change and new ones will emerge. Capturing the essence of this event is a challenge - this post-conference book has three parts. The first is the substantial number of theme papers.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This text provides an analysis of the role that information and communication technologies can have in teaching and learning. It explores how communication capability through the Internet, Web and email changes the nature of the teacher-learner interface itself, as well as the learner-technology interface. The book is derived from selected contributions to the seventh World Conference on Computers in Education (WCCE), which was sponsored by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) and held in Copenhagen, Denmark in July/August 2001.The volume is presented in three parts: papers organized around themes - open and distance learning, ICT in learning, new pedagogic ideas, teaching mathematics, teaching computer science, forms of assessment, management and resources, teacher education and national initiatives; professional groups providing reflections and perspectives on issues from social and ethical concerns, virtual universities and the next generation of programming languages, to the interface between virtuality and reality in schools and the role of large multi-national projects to stimulate change; reports of the lively discussions during panel sessions, such as provoking new images of research and practices, experiences of e-learning and e-training and the future platforms in educational technology. Keywords provide readers with different conceptual slices that can be found across the chapters, such as collaborative learning, problem solving, cognition and interactions. The book that emerges from an IFIP Technical Committee World Conference on Computers in Education is complex, and this complexity lies in the nature of the event from which it emerges.
