WORKSHOPA workshop provides an opportunity for a group of participants to achieve a specific goal or address a particular problem. It may be designed to train or educate participants in a particular research methodology or theoretical approach, e.g., or to address a specific problem, such as how to use particular research findings in health psychological care or policy. A workshop can also be a useful way to develop a consensus on a particular issue. For example, the goal of the workshop may be to produce a position statement or policy on a particular topic, to identify priorities in a specific area or to develop theoretical perspectives or methodologies. It should have a clear structure and require active participation by everyone involved. The Workshop convenor/facilitator should warn us in advance if there is a limit of participants, so we can have time to inform the conference attendees. A workshop session should be dynamic and interactive. Timing for workshops should not extend 60 minutes.

EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT, TEACHING &TECHNOLOGY (EDTT)“International Education through Technology – Challenges, Issues and Developments

OVERVIEWGlobalization is an active process that is transforming the world economic system. Knowledge and information take on increasing importance with the emergence of a new development model specially in the highly industrialized countries. Thus, the era of globalisation has tremendous implications for knowledge, education and learning.

At the economic level, globalization is affecting employment and Schools will need to reconsider their mission in light of changing job markets; new skills and the flexibility to adapt to changing job demands and, for that matter, changing jobs over a lifetime; and dealing with an increasingly competitive international labor pool. The increasing commercialization of the school environment has become remarkably bold and explicit in this decade.

As Educators our ability to educate and prepare the world’s future leaders in politics, business, and education along with our determination to set positive examples for the value of democracy, civility, and human rights can shape the future of the world. However, there were many barriers to preparing students adequately for a global economy and society. The most significant barriers include limited resources, language barriers, and lack of mobility of students.

New technologies provide ways to overcome the traditional barriers to global education and language learning. The 21st century ushered in an era with the highest level of global interconnectedness in human history. Text,





voice, and images are transferred with a click on a cellular phone or a computer. Students sign up for online classes that are taught by educators who are nowhere near where the students live.

Main Themes of the Conference includes: International Students Assessment Data Information and Communication Technologies and the impact of gender on the writing performance of

students Creativity and pedagogical innovation processes in material spaces Safety culture and safety education in learning and working environments Ongoing projects, developments , Issues & Challenges How to overcome organizational issues General Issues & future of the industry Technology in Education & Teaching Pedagogy and Assessment in Education Curriculum and and Multilingual Education

The EDTT will set aside space for those who wish to pursue discussion of a particular topic or issue. Interested individuals should submit a proposal not more than 400 words, on or before November 15, 2016. In addition, the proposal should indicate the duration of the panel discussion (preferred duration is 90 minutes).

All accepted Panel Discussion proposal will be published in the Conference Proceedings. If you are interested in organising Panel Discussion for EDTT, please email your proposal to [email protected]. Submissions should be in MS Word format.

It may be designed to train or educate participants in a particular research methodology or theoretical approach, e.g., or to address a specific problem, such as how to use particular research findings in health psychological care or policy. A workshop can also be a useful way to develop a consensus on a particular issue. For example, the goal of the workshop may be to produce a position statement or policy on a particular topic, to identify priorities in a specific area or to develop theoretical perspectives or methodologies. It should have a

clear structure and require active participation by everyone involved. The Workshop convenor/facilitator should warn us in advance if there is a limit of participants, so we can have time to inform the conference attendees. A workshop session should be dynamic and interactive. Timing for workshops should not extend 60 minutes.

(8)TECHNOLOGY PROCESS FOR SUSTAINABILITY AND CLIMATE

CHANGE: ISSUES & PERSPECTIVES (TPS&CCIP)OVERVIEWThere is a strong inconsistency between technology growth and sustainable development. Sustainable development aims at balancing the current needs and the needs of the future generations. From climatic changes, to resource depletion, all these are hampering the ecosystem. Nations, companies and individuals are recognizing the urgency of sustainability. The real food for thought here is whether economic development and sustainability can coexist or are mutually exclusive. Technology Process for Sustainable Development plays a big role in this context. The main issue is to identify the relation and the strength of relation among these aspects.

PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION, MANAGEMENT AND GOVERNANCE (PAMG)

OVERVIEWGlobal issues such as climate change, fiscal crises, human rights violations, international crimes, seemingly meddling supra-national institutions, disruptive technology and ‘populist nationalism’, among others, are driving policy choices and governance strategies to engage all sectors of the society towards common goals. Despite gains in some fronts and reforms and innovations in governance, countries around the world continue to face challenges and gaps in crafting priorities and targets for achieving sustainable reforms and new, different norms never imagined or mainstreamed before.

Governments offer new perspectives and untested courses of action to address these challenges and problems. Governments and Public Administration must continue to take the lead in ushering the world towards a desirable quality of life for all. Challenged by the perennial and stubborn issues of prolonged high poverty levels and corruption and inefficiency in many places, the government together with the private sector and the civil society must more seriously confront the issues now and equip themselves with the appropriate mindsets, paradigms, leadership models and resolve to better deliver responsive public goods, solutions and initiatives to make the world resilient, better today and in the future.

AIMSInternational Conference on Public Administration, Management and Governance organised by the International Association of Research Scholars & Administrators (IARSA) provides lots of networking opportunities to scholars professors and Practitioners for corporate and development sectors interested in the issues related to Management, Leadership and Governance to share their thinking and research findings. The scope of this conference is broad and covers many aspects of international technology perspectives. This conference aims to provide scholarly platform to participants to share their valuable knowledge and current information with others.

These fields of study are broadly described as including strategic and operational managerial topics, the leadership challenges facing senior and high potential management and the formal and informal governance of





the organisation. The Conference provides a forum for discussion, collaboration and intellectual exchange for all those interested in any of these fields of research or practice. Work focusing on entrepreneurship and/or sustainability will be particularly welcome.
