For the 12th year in a row, Columbia University will host the International Conference on E-Learning in the Workplace (ICELW). ICELW 2019, originally convened by Dr. David Guralnick, will take place this week from June 12th to 14th. The conference will feature papers, panels, and workshops offered by industry experts and researchers alike.\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

ICELW\u2019s History and Mandate<\/h1>\n

ICELW was first held in 2008. Last year, Guralnick, who is also the founder and CEO of\u00a0Kaleidoscope Learning, told eLearning Inside<\/em><\/a>, \u00a0\u201cI have always viewed ICELW as a fairly unique conference, in that we bring together researchers and practitioners from such a wide variety of countries.” Each year, the conference brings together what Guralnick describes as a mix of researchers, trainers, and consultants.<\/p>\n

In 2019, ICELW included a keynote by Barbara Oakley who created the world\u2019s most popular MOOC. Sean Patton, a game designer, was also on hand to give a keynote on the growing impact of gaming on the training and education sectors. The 2019 ICELW promises to be just as eclectic and engaging.<\/p>\n

ICELW 2019 Keynotes<\/h2>\n

This year’s keynote speakers include\u00a0Meredith Broussard, an Assistant Professor in the Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute at New York University. Her scheduled keynote, “Artificial Unintelligence” will explore how our growing excited for computer technologies has resulted in many poorly designed systems. Brossard contends that we are so interested in deploying digital technologies to carry out everyday activities from driving to finding romantic partners to paying our bills that we don’t always step back to ask ourselves if these solutions are working. Broussard will argue that if we can recognize the limits of new technologies, it might be possible to make smarter choices about how and when to use these technologies in the classroom.<\/p>\n

Scott Barry Kaufman, a\u00a0psychologist based at Barnard College at Columbia University, will deliver the other keynote at this year’s ICELW.\u00a0In his keynote, Kaufman will discuss his research on the characteristics of self-actualizing people. Among other key questions, Kaufman will explore whether our current desire to optimize everything has already gone too far.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Other ICELW Program Highlights<\/h2>\n

In addition to the conference keynotes, this year’s ICELW program<\/a> highlights include panels on topics such as\u00a0virtual reality, MOOCs, automatic assessment, emerging technologies, gamification, brain-centric design, and eLearning in developing countries.<\/p>\n

Notably, as in the past, participants at this year’s ICELW will come from around the globe. Among other international attendees, confirmed participants include those from the Universidad Libre and Universidad Nacional in Colombia,\u00a0Nwafor Orizu College of Education in Nigeria,\u00a0University of Applied Sciences Campus in Austria,\u00a0FernUniversit\u00e4t in Germany, and\u00a0University of the Free State in South Africa. But ICELW isn’t just a conference for academics. Industry leaders in eLearning and edtech are also well represented. This year, industry leaders from Kaleidoscope Learning, Inside Business Group, openSAP, and SweetRush will be in attendance.<\/p>\n

As always, the conference will close with the announcement of the 2019\u00a0International E-Learning Awards–Business Division<\/a> winners. Last year eLearning winner was an entry submitted by Germany’s Deutsche Welle focused on second-language learning. \u00a0In the mobile learning category, the Children\u2019s Hospital Association, an American team, won the top prize for their transfusion reaction management app. The blended learning winner was submitted by Larnavi Consultants, a team based in Spain.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
