--Introduction & Objective of the book--
As the e-learning industry continues to expand every day, and the methods and tools necessary to create and maintain content and infrastructure applications become more complicated there is an inherent need for these applications to interoperate and exchange data in order to better support the needs of learners and educators. This book aims to provide relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research findings in the area of e-learning standards
and interoperability. The main purpose of the handbook is to promote the discussion of and present specific solutions for increasing the interoperability of future standalone and Web-based educational tools. Further, the role and issues arising from the deployment of learning standards will be investigated. The ultimate goal of this publication is to be a scholarly edition suitable for practitioners and researchers in the area of educational technology with a focus on content reusability and interoperability.
--Recommended topics include, but are not limited to, the following
(Additional topics can be found at http://www.scm.tees.ac.uk/flazarinis/):
* Learning standards for interoperability
* Interoperability use cases
* Interoperability of Web-based educational systems
* Learning objects repository interoperability

Call for Chapters: Collective Intelligence and E-Learning 2.0: Implications of Web-Based Communities and Networking
Call for Chapters: Collective Intelligence and E-Learning 2.0: Implications of Web-Based Communities and Networking
We would like to invite you to consider contributing your expertise to a forthcoming book edited by me and Prof. Harrison Yang of the State University of New York at Oswego, entitled Collective Intelligence and E-Learning 2.0: Implications of Web-Based Communities and Networking.
E-learning 2.0 is evolving to one of the most exciting, dynamic, and challenging fields involving teaching and learning. The widespread Web 2.0 applications have the capacity for educational institutions and corporations involved in training to extend the possibilities of e-learning. E-learning 2.0 has the potential to become far more personal, social, and flexible. In the
fields of e-learning, distance education, instructional technology, knowledge management, etc., there exists a need for an edited collection of chapters that provide a balance of research, theory, and applications on both innovative Web 2.0 technologies and future e-learning.
Collective Intelligence and E-Learning 2.0: Implications of Web-Based Communities and Networking will aim to introduce theoretical framework of e-learning 2.0 based on Web 2.0 technologies and provide practical aspect of e-learning 2.0 that includes research, case studies, best practices, pedagogical approaches and strategies, related resources and projects, etc. The
book will include four sections:
1. From Web to Web 2.0 and E-Learning 2.0
2. Web 2.0 Technologies in Education and Training
