    ELSIN 2008: "Style and cultural differences: how can organisations,
    regions and countries take advantage of style differences?"

    Preliminary schedule


    Dear colleagues,

    Do you want to keep yourself informed on the latest research on learning
    or cognitive styles?
    Are you eager to share experiences about how to use differences in
    thinking and learning in organisations?

    Then you might be interested to join the 13th annual European Learning
    Styles Information Network (ELSIN) conference. Central theme is 'Style
    and cultural differences: how can organisations, regions and countries
    take advantage of style differences?'. This unique event takes place on
    23, 24 and 25 June 2008 at the Ghent Campus of Vlerick Leuven Gent
    Management School (Belgium). It is also possible to attend only one day
    of the conference.

    We are happy to announce that we received a wide variety of
    contributions for presentation at the ELSIN 2008 conference. The
    conference schedule includes:
    * four keynote lectures by Li-fang Zhang (Hong Kong), Velda McCune
    (UK), Luciara Nardon (Brazil), and David Venter (South-Africa)
    * 46 individual papers in which scientists from all over the world
    present their research in the field of styles and strategies of thinking
    and learning
    * nine workshops (incl. a PhD workshop) that provide an
    interactive and active learning forum to exchange experiences and
    knowledge
    * three symposia with relevance for the future of the style field

    symposia, practical details and registration:
