Hi Markus,
could you forward the call for participation for C5 2008 to the
german squeak mailing-list and to other people that might be
interessed ?
A SqueakParty will be also organized the last day of the
conference. A first program is here : http://community.ofset.org/
index.php/C5_2008_Squeak_Party
Sophie, OpenCroquet, Dr Geo 2 and OLPC talks/demos are already
planned.
The people can register for the conference here : http://

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
The Sixth International Conference on
Creating, Connecting and Collaborating through Computing (C5 2008)
January 14-16, 2008, Poitiers, France
http://www.cm.is.ritsumei.ac.jp/c5-08/
Oraganized by
Kyoto University Global COE (Centers of Excellence) Program:
Informatics Education and Research Center for Knowledge-
Circulating Society
European Smalltalk User Group
Espace Mendès France
Viewpoints Research Institute
Impara
SCOPE
Computers, networks, and other forms of technology are now pervasive
in our information-based society. However, most users still function
as passive consumers of technology. To evolve into a true knowledge
society, it is critical that we transform computer-based human
activities to engage users in the active process of creating,
connecting, and collaborating together.
The C5 conference is for researchers, technology developers,
educators, and technology users who are concerned about developing
and enabling human-oriented creation, connection, and collaboration
processes. C5 is an international forum for presenting ongoing work
as well as new work currently under development and for discussing
future needs and directions in creative computing and multimedia
authoring environments. We welcome equally the submission of
technical papers and practitioner/experience reports for paper
presentations. In addition, we are adding a workshop track for the
third day of the conference and are soliciting proposals for
interactive workshops.
For the first time hosted in Europe, this conference builds on the
successes and high standards held by previous C5 conferences :
2003-2005, 2007 in Kyoto (Japan), 2006 in Berkeley (USA).
TOPICS OF INTEREST
Topics of interest include but not limited to
- Development and applications of collaboration tools and
environments
- User collaboration using 3D, multimedia, and animation objects
- Technologies for creating educational environments
- Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) and
Technology-Enabled Learning (TEL)
- Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW), distributed work, and
virtual teaming
- Hybrid technology activities, such as scientific experiments,
instrumentation, robots, and game playing
- Development of applications/content for non traditional learning
environments, e.g. mentoring, peer-to-peer, "teacherless"
environments (in developing countries), low cost and sustainable
technologies, e.g., $100 laptop
- Applications and tools for education from K-12 through higher
education, system design by children, digital library and search
environment for children
KEYNOTES SPEAKERS
Keynote talks will be given on January 15th as a joint session
with the "First Workshop on Field Informatics," which will be
