*/IASTED/ One Week Reminder* /Last chance to submit!/

*The Fifth IASTED International Conference on *Web-Based Education /~WBE 2006~/ **

*January 23-25, 2006 Puerto Vallarta, Mexico *

* * *PURPOSE* As keyboards replace chalkboards, the Web’s impact on traditional educational theories and practices are increasingly apparent. It has transformed and expanded the conventional boundaries of education. New innovations such as virtual colleges, laboratories, and universities are developing, creating an abundance of additional areas of study surrounding this innovation. These include innovative hardware and software technology, online testing and assessment, training and teaching applications, and courseware design and development.

/WBE 2006/ is aimed to provide scholars, faculty, researchers, and administrators in all web-based educational areas with an excellent opportunity to convene with colleagues from approximately 50 countries and discuss innovative ideas, results and outcomes of research in this new and exciting field.

All papers submitted to this conference will be peer evaluated by at least two reviewers. Acceptance will be based primarily on originality of ideas and approaches, uniqueness and completeness of research, and significance of contribution.

Submit your paper here: http://www.iasted.org/conferences/2006/mexico/submit-504.htm
