LAMS Conference December 9th in Sydney - Proposals Due in 5 days

Proposals for presentations and/or papers for the 6th International LAMS and Learning Design conference (Sydney, December 9th) are due 30th September - we hope you can join us to share your thoughts and experiences on LAMS, Learning Design and related topics. For submission details, please see
http://lams2011sydney.lamsfoundation.org/submissions.html

The conference will be held at Macquarie University. Beginner and Advanced LAMS workshops will be available on the 8th. We expect many Learning Design experts from around the world will be in Sydney in December, so this should make for particularly rich discussions this year. For all conference details, see
