The E.E.C.A.E. is a world-wide, distributed, electronic conference focused
on issues of importance to assessment and evaluation related to learning
and instruction.
Conference Procedure
The conference will last for 3 days. Participants should schedule during
these days two or three different moments each day for active participation.
For example each day between 9 am and 10 am and between 4 pm and 5 pm you can
attend the conference interactively.
The conference will be running along the EARLI-AE list.

If you want to attend the conference, you should send the message
Subscribe EARLI-AE yourfirstname yourlastname
to the listserv management (listserv@nic.surfnet.nl) or (listsrv@hearn.bitnet))

If you are a member of the list and you do not want to attend the conference
then send the message
set EARLI-AE nomail
to the listserv management on Februari 18 1994
and send the message
set EARLI-AE mail
to the same address on Februari 24 1994 for receiving the normal list postings
again.
One week before the conference you will receive the abstracts and papers of
the three invited addresses. In this way, each discussion will be introduced
by an internationally known 'first speaker'. Anyone can act as a 'second
speaker' before the conference.
The conference will be discussing three discussion group topics.
The board will select the topics. Any list member is asked to send in topics
and one screen abstracts to be proposed as conference topic. Suggestions for
invited addresses on the given topic are welcome (if including the Email
address).
During the conference all messages will go over the same EARLI-AE list.
However, each topic will get its own subject line. In this way anyone will
be able to take part in one, two or three discussions by reading the mail
with the corresponding subject lines. For example PREFASS for perfomance
assessment.
Two chairpersons for each topic discussion group will moderate when necessary.
They will be on line during the whole conference. One will be from the
American continent, the other one from the European continent in order to be
able to moderate across time differences.
CONFERENCE RATE
As there are no costs for becoming an EARLI-AE member, there will be no
cost for participation other then that for normal access to any of the
distribution networks. There is no formal registration process, other than
keeping your list on the 'mail' mode.
PUBLICATION
After the conference, the board will consider the invited addresses, the
entries and discussions for publication as a whole on each topic. If
publication is considered worthwhile the board will contact editors for an
appropriate outlet. One can think of the EARLI journals L&I or EARLI-news
or the SIG book series.
The EECAE discussions
The quality of the conference will depend upon quality discussion, skilful
porters and efficient electronic distribution on the networks.
For this reason it is important to read the discussion guidelines beforehand.
AIM
The EECEA is directed towards all scholars, students and practitioners
who are interested in new developments concerning A&E.
