Preface
This edited volume consists of extended papers selected from the International
Conference on Technology in Education (ICTE 2014). As the conference theme
highlights, the contents of the papers discuss issues of “Transforming Educational
Practices with Technology.”
Technology has become an integral part in virtually all aspects of education,
broadly covering curriculum planning, content development and delivery, assess-
ment, program evaluation, and communication among learners, instructors, and
institutions. In conventional universities, open learning institutions, as well as
continuing education organizations, technology has become an irreversible force
driving changes and transforming practices. New approaches, methods, proce-
dures, and tools are emerging and therefore to contribute as a timely academic
platform
In this volume, the papers are organized into four groups: namely “Appli-
cation of Mobile Technologies in e-Learning,” “Technology Advancement in e-
Learning Systems,” “Innovations in e-Learning Pedagogy,” and “Open Educa-
tion and Institution e-Learning Policy.”
Our many sincere thanks go to the Organizing Committee of the conference
for their effective administration and unfailing support. Our great thanks also go
to the Program Committee. The high quality of this book could not have been
maintained without their professional comments and advice in the paper-review
process.
