The next eLearning generation will involve social networking, document sharing, collaboration, and interoperability. The Conference will consider evolving pedagogical approaches and raise the profile of research in technology-enhanced learning; spread good practice in the use of Web 2.0 technologies for learning; and facilitate collaboration among practitioners, researchers, and policy makers.

eLearning 2.0 comprises invited keynote speakers and individual presentations. The presentations will be recorded and published online as a series of screencasts. Presenters will be invited to have full papers fast-tracked for publication in the Social Media in Business and the Education Special Issue of the Journal of Enterprise Information Management.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to evolving pedagogies for Web 2.0; security, privacy, social networking, podcasting, wikis, blogging, video sharing, screencasting, and folksonomies; eLearning 2.0 and people with disabilities; the potential impact of eLearning 2.0 on the Third World; creativity and Web 2.0; human-computer interaction; and business.

Keynote speakers are Maggie McPherson from the School of Education, University of Leeds, UK, and Steve Wheeler from School of Education, Plymouth University, UK.
