"Beyond Theory: Educational best practice and the use of ICT
for teaching and learning"
11th April, 2003
Oxford Union Debating Chamber
Oxford, UK
Organised by Oxford University's Learning Technologies Group
(http://www.oucs.ox.ac.uk/ltg)
Sponsored by the JISC Committee for Learning and Teaching
(http://www.jisc.ac.uk)
Target audience: Schools, FE, HE, and lifelong learning
This event will discuss, at a high level, the development of C&IT material
for use in teaching. In particular has pedagogical theory/best practice
fed into this in the past, and if not, should we be trying to remedy the
situation for the future? Are commercial VLEs the answer to our prayers or
are we being pushed into a corner against our better judgement as teachers
and designers?
These questions and many more will be discussed, debated, and maybe even
answered in the one-day colloquium "Beyond Theory: Educational best
practice and the use of ICT for teaching and learning". For the last eight
years Oxford University has organised a series of successful events which
have discussed the place of technology in the spheres of learning,
culture, and society and 'Beyond Theory' continues this.
Speakers this year *include*:
Professor Oleg Liber (Bolton)
Vijay Kumar (MIT)
Dr. Gilly Salmon (Open University Business School)
Dr. Andrew Ravenscroft (UNL)
Professor Angela McFarlane (Bristol)
Professor David Unwin (UK eUniversities Worldwide)
Bill Olivier (CETIS)
Tom Franklin (TechLearn Centre)
Dr Andy Syson (Coventry)
Prof. Andrew Booth (Leeds)
The event will also include a lengthy debate on the motion:
"This house believes that commercial Virtual Learning Environments (LMS)
provide sufficient facilities for the teaching and learning needs of
Higher and Further Education"

3RD OPEN ARCHIVES FORUM WORKSHOP
The organizing committee is very pleased to announce the 3rd Open
Archives Forum Workshop, which will be held in Berlin on 27-29th March,
2003. Registration is opened on the Open Archives Forum website
(http://www.oaforum.org/workshops/).
The aim of the Berlin workshop is to explore which specific requirements
and demands ought to be carefully weighed and considered before a digital
media archive is made available via the Internet. Within this workshop we
will discuss different approaches to network media repositories, libraries,
archives and other information resources using the Open Archives Initiative
technical framework for metadata harvesting.
The workshop will consist of both presentations given by invited speakers
and small group breakout sessions where the participants can discuss key
issues, such as:
* Metadata for multimedia-objects
* Demands for an Application profile for media archives
* University services in this field
* User needs/Usage conditions versus technical, legal, access issues
* Cross searching distributed Internet information resources
* Collaboration among different cultural heritage institutions
/Multi-Institutional ventures
A tutorial on the implementation of OAI-PMH will be held the day before
the workshop (on March 27th) for those who are not familiar with this
protocol. One of the workshop speakers will be Herbert van de Sompel
(Cornell University) representing the Open Archives Initiative (OAI) with
an update of OAI activities.

========================================================
The annual ISMIR Conference is the first established international
forum for those involved in work on accessing digital musical
materials. It reflects the tremendous growth of music-related data
available either locally or remotely through networks and the
consequent need to search this content and retrieve music and musical
information efficiently and effectively.
This area presents vast challenges for those who need to organize and
structure musical data, provide tools to search and retrieve, and use
these tools efficiently. Music representation needs to be multi-
dimensional and time-dependent; audio data is voluminous, requiring
particular care in storage and transmission while preserving quality;
the need for descriptive information about what is musically
significant addresses a large spectrum of internal and external
characteristics, from acoustic to musicological and cultural features;
intellectual property rights issues (about what can be made available
to whom and how) are complex, involve a variety of individuals and
organizations, and vary from country to country.
All of these concerns are of interest to education, academia,
entertainment and industry. This conference thus aims at providing a
place for the exchange of news, issues and results, by bringing
together researchers and developers, educators and librarians,
students and professional users, working in fields that contribute
significantly to this multidisciplinary domain, to present original
theoretical or practical work in peer-reviewed contributions (papers,
posters). It will also serve as a discussion forum (panels), provide
introductory and in-depth information in specific domains (tutorials),
and show current products (exhibits).
Detailed information about the conference and its organization is
available on its Web site (http://ismir2003.ismir.net/).
