Just go: http://conclave.open.ac.uk/fit-conference Apologies for cross-postings 1st Global Online Conference on Fit I thought colleagues might be interested in this online conference that is running Monday through Wednesday for a couple of reasons: 1. If you are teaching or researching in the domain of fit, it will be clearly be of interest to you. The conference contains ten new research papers, nine teaching and learning zone papers containing materials for teachers, four doctoral studies, a multimedia workshop and four keynote presentations from leaders in the field:
- Annelies Van Vianen and J.W. Stoelhorst, University of Amsterdam
- Ben Schneider, Valtera Corp. and University of Maryland
- Cheri Ostroff, University of Maryland

2. It offers a possible vision of conferencing in the future. This conference has been set up at virtually no cost and registration is free to all. There are no travel costs. And the nature of the interaction allows for a more detailed, considered, prepared and thoughtful engagement with participants than is commonly possible in face-to-face conferences. Is this a vision of conferencing in the future? To visit the conference, please use the following link: http://conclave.open.ac.uk/fit-conference Registration is free and takes just a few moments.
