The sixteenth
edition of the International Conference on Information,
Communication Technologies in Education, ICICTE 2016, will be
held on Rhodes, Greece, between 7 and 9 July, 2016.
This conference has
proved itself to be one of the best small conferences of its type.
As it has done in its previous fifteen editions, ICICTE 2016
will seek to address the many challenges and new directions
presented by technological innovations in educational settings.
Also following in the tradition of previous ICICTE conferences,
ICICTE 2016 will bring together an international community of
scholars and practitioners in a forum setting. Opportunities for
discussion on current thinking and practices in applications of
technology to education are enhanced by the limited number of
participants. ICICTE invites papers, workshops and posters in a
number of general themes, but also suggests a number of
specialised themes that can be explored by its participants.
For a full listing
of topics for ICICTE 2016, please consult the conference Aims
and Themes, that also provides short definitions of themes and
potential approaches.
We are pleased to
note that The
International Journal of Learning and Information Technology
and other
peer-reviewed journals will
again devote a special issue to selected papers from ICICTE.
Closing ceremonies
will include, among other awards, the presentation of the ICICTE
Graduate Student Paper Award, which recognizes the work of
upcoming scholars and practitioners.
The conference’s
social programs have always brought Greek hospitality to the
fore of our meetings and discussions. This year’s social program
includes the opening night reception, the closing ‘Greek Night’
dinner, and two lunches.
The gorgeous,
historical environment, the limited number of participants, and
the intimate setting allow attendees to develop associations
that extend into post-conference activities. For further
information, please contact the Conference Director, Nancy Pyrini.
We invite you to
join us this summer in enjoying the high standard of hospitality
of the people of Rhodes.
