Invitation to Contribute to 2009 Issue of SEDI

Dear HumanDHS network friends

Please find below an invitation from Dr.Chandra B. Sharma to write for the 2009 issue of Staff and Educational Development International (SEDI).

Kind regards

Brian Ward

Dear Colleague,

It has been decided to devote the first issue of 2009 of the Staff and Educational Development International (SEDI) to ‘ICT in Regional Educational Collaboration and Development’.

The issue intends to examine how information and communication technologies (ICT) have been used for cross border education, in other words case studies and success stories are welcome. It will also be of interest to examine how ICTs can be used for cross border education between two countries or a group of countries. Across border ICT supported education may be of special use to learners who do not have access or access to quality education. However cost may be an issue.

ICT supported across border education may also be of great help to learners where travelling across border may not be easy and also not affordable for all. However, large number of people may like to receive education in a language which is not a medium of education of that nation but of the neighbouring national e.g. Hindi speakers in Nepal. There may be many similar issues for ICT supported across border education which we would like to highlight through this issue of SEDI. Various technologies and media can be examined.

I invite you to contribute to this issue of the journal. Also, please forward this mail to those who you think are woking in this area.

I will look forward to hearing from you at the earliest so that I can let you know the format details.
