The Themes and the Structure of the Conference
The 20th ICDE World Conference on Open Learning and
Distance Education will be held under the main theme
The Future of Learning –
Learning for the Future:
Shaping the Transition
The main objective of the conference will be to view the
development of learning and to explore how especially
open learning and distance education, virtual training and
e-learning will find their positions in a perpetually
changing world in the coming years.
During the decades before the turn of the millennium the
influence of technology, economy, politics, and society on
people was very strong and it will go on affecting our daily
life. World-wide, we find ourselves in a period of
transition. Nobody could have expected all the radical
changes that have taken place during the past years, and
today nobody can predict reliably the development and
the changes still to come. In addition, changes and
developments have been rather diverse in the different
parts of the world as far as way, rapidity, and results are
concerned.
Against this background, we have to ask ourselves
whether we want to accept, to control, to harmonize, to
remove, or to overcome these changes and developments
with all their varieties. Thus, we need to get an idea of our
aims: What do we want education and training
worldwide to be in 2005/2010?
We should not allow ourselves to be overrun by the
upcoming technical, economic, political, and social
developments. On the contrary, we should aim to actively
influence the objectives, the contents, the direction, the
path, the means, and the rapidity of the changes and thus
shape the transition into the future. We need to give
answers to the following questions:
Considering the need to face the changes and
developments in the field of education and training, the
20th ICDE World Conference will explore the challenges
for Open Learning and Distance Education under the
following six main streams:
❏
❏
❏
❏
❏
❏
Strategies & Policies
Contents & Skills
Methods & Technologies
Support & Services
Management & Logistics
Research & Evaluation
Within these streams the development of Open Learning
and Distance Education will be treated under the influence
of various issues and aspects. The most significant ones are
listed here:
Issues
Quality
Accreditation/Certification
Technology-Pedagogy Interface
Staff Development
Gender
Disabled/Disadvantaged
Barriers/Constraints
Markets/Marketing
Partnerships/Alliances/Networks
Developing Countries
Take off Countries
Developed Countries
Aspects
local/regional
national
multi-/trans-/international
institutional
sectorial
global
virtual
social
cultural
economic
political
language
All these streams, issues, and aspects affect Lifelong
Learning in its three main areas of education and training:
School
and
Vocational Education
University
and
Higher Education
Company
and
Workforce Training
The definite programme of the World Conference has
been designed along this structure of streams, issues,
aspects, and areas.
To get a visual impression of the conference structure
please have a look at the Conference Scheme on page 4.

The 57 Parallel Sessions are related to the six main
streams of the conference (see Conference Scheme for
details). A number of presentations is grouped under an
additional stream “Case Studies”.
Appraisal: The members of the International Programme
Committee took much time and effort in evaluating the
submitted abstracts. The evaluation of the abstracts
related to the “Support and Services” stream was in the
hands of the Open University, United Kingdom; the same
applies to the structuring of that particular stream.
The UNED, Spain, contributed in particular to the
evaluation of the abstracts with a “language” aspect.
POSTER SESSIONS
The sixteen Poster Sessions are linked to the different Parallel
Sessions. There will be two types of Poster Sessions:
❏ Different authors (max. 12) give short presentations
(5 minutes) of their posters and discuss the topics with
the audience afterwards; the session will be led by a
chairperson.
❏ A moderator gives a professional summary of up to 12
posters, followed by a discussion of the authors and the
audience; the discussion will be led by the moderator.
All posters will be presented in the Poster Display Area
throughout the conference. Meetings with the author(s) at
the poster walls independent of the Poster Sessions will be
possible. In Poster Sessions only OHP presentations, but no
Powerpoint, Video, or Online presentation (Internet) will be

Düsseldorf
DÜSSELDORF - the Exciting City on the Rhine
It is the contrasts which make the capital city of North
Rhine-Westphalia with its 570.00 inhabitants so special.
Düsseldorf, a bustling, modern city, is a major centre of
trade, commerce and services, and, above all, the city of
fashion, shopping, and culture. It is located in the heart of
the Rhine-Ruhr conurbation and in the centre of Europe.
Düsseldorf and the surrounding region are home to 52
universities and numerous excellent and outstanding
research institutes.
Between Rhenish conviviality and cosmopolitan charm, there
exists a wealth of attractions worth being seen and
experienced, a richly faceted spectrum...
© Stadt Düsseldorf, K.-Nr. 8500
... from the picturesque narrow lanes of the Altstadt, the old
town, to the new Rhine embankment promenade and to
the splendour of Königsallee, a true catwalk for the latest
fashion trends ...
... from the small galleries and antique shops of the
Karlstadt quarter with its elegantly restored architecture to
the Kö-Galerie, one of the most elegant shopping malls in
Europe ...
... from the delicately precious Roman glasses in the
Kunstmuseum (art museum) to the treasures of
contemporary paintings in the Kunstsammlung (art
collection) NRW, to name just two of Düsseldorf’s many
museums, forming an ‘art axis’ that runs parallel to the
Rhine ...
... from the German Opera on the Rhine to numerous
theatres spread over the city and the newly established
Media Mile in the old harbour area ...
... from one of the 260 cosy pubs in the Altstadt, the old
town, and its ‘Altbier’ to the three-star gourmet temple...
... from the ruins of Emperor Barbarossa’s fortified castle at
Kaiserswerth on the Rhine to the daintily ornate charm of
the late-baroque Benrath Palace ...
... more would be worth to be mentioned - please see the
information included in the conference bag.

After breakfast we are going to be picked up by our guide to
leave for Utrecht and Amsterdam. After a city walk through
Utrecht we will continue to Amsterdam where a short sight
seeing tour will give a first impression of the ”Venice of the
North” with its famous network of canals and more than
1000 bridges. After lunch in a nice restaurant you will get to
know the history around Hajenius, one of the most famous
European brands of cigars, and you will have the opportunity

A roundtrip on Amsterdam’s canals on a private boat will
allow us to admire the characteristic architecture of the 17th

of their gables were the only possibility to distinguish them
from each other. After a refreshment with coffee and cake we
will continue to Gassan Diamonds, one of Amsterdam’s most
important diamond grinding shops, where you can watch
the transformation of an inconspicuous stone to a glittering
diamond and enjoy an exclusive ”Diamond Cocktail”. In one

The ICDE Prize of Excellence
The ICDE Prize of Excellence was inaugurated in 1999 as the
Global Prize of Excellence in distance and virtual learning.
ICDE is pleased to announce that the ICDE Prizes of Excellence are awarded in April 2001 to deserving entities such
as educational institutions, organizations, governments,
companies, and individuals for the highest possible excellence in the fields of distance and virtual learning. Decisions to award the ICDE Prize of Excellence were based on
merit alone. No political or cultural consideration was given
in connection with awarding the Prize.
The winners of the ICDE Prize of Excellence will receive the
Prize at the ICDE 20th World Conference, in Düsseldorf,
Germany, during the Opening Ceremony on 01 April 2001.
However, the ICDE being headquartered in Oslo, Norway, the
ICDE Prize of Excellence will follow a tradition set by the Nobel Peace Prize in terms of the winners being required to
deliver their Prize Lecture in Oslo. The winners of the ICDE
Prize of Excellence, by accepting the Prize, also accept the
commitment to travel to Oslo the same year that they receive
the Prize, where they will be invited to deliver their ICDE Prize
of Excellence Lecture to an international audience.
