e/merge 2008 - Professionalising Practices (http://emerge2008.net) was the third virtual conference on educational technology in Africa, following and building on on the e/merge conferences in 2004 and 2006. e/merge2008 took place online from 7 - 18 July 2008 and was primarily designed to share good practice and knowledge about educational technology innovation within the further and higher education sectors in the region, as well as to strengthen communities of researchers and practitioners. e/merge2008 was mainly for educational technology researchers and practitioners based in Southern Africa and the English-speaking African countries in West and East Africa. Participants from other regions who have an interest in the use of educational technology in Africa were also warmly welcomed, and in some cases actively recruited as presenters or workshop leaders. |
