 * [|Byron Youth Services]** and **EYE C Media Arts**, in partnership with other e-learning networks including **[|NSW LearnScope]** and **[|SAE LearnScope 2006]** will be hosting a second e-learning network event involving a number of international organisations and guests. The focus of this event ( virtual and physical ) will be to bring groups of learners and educators together in an open and networked learning environment.

A number of synchronous and asynchronous communication e-learning and [|m-learning platforms] will showcase how these new and emergent technologies are being used within a teaching and learning context. Online platforms include [|Breeze], [|Second Life], [|MSN], [|My Space], [|Open Croquet], [|Moblog.Co.Uk] , [|Elluminate] and the [|Dekita] project.

This event will bring many differing e-learning and [|m-learning advocates] together in both a physical and virtual synchronous environment with a focus on engaging young people in both formal and informal educational settings which suit their needs. The connected learning environments of today must somehow mesh with what we expect of our learners - theirs, ours, or should there be any distinction ?
