be held from December 2-5 2010, at the Ramada

Special Theme: Internationalization or
Globalization?

Education systems across the world are becoming
increasingly socially, ethnically and culturally
diverse, both as a consequence of globalization
and in response to internationalization. The
conference theme, Globalization or
internationalization?, has a particular focus on
adult, distance and access education, and the
organizers encourage submissions that approach
this question from a variety of perspectives.
However, the submission of other topics for
consideration is welcome and we also encourage
sessions within and across a variety of disciplines
and fields related to Education.

The deadline for abstracts/proposals is 15 July
2010.
