"Hello! Where are you?" is almost a global greeting of today's mobile phone generation. However, there are many connotations to "Where are you?", including in the context of learning. As a theme for the conference we have chosen to pursue the one we consider most relevant to ascilite, by inviting you to consider your role, experience and future directions in the landscape of educational technology.
