    The aim of this Conference is to attract those who have
    already adopted, and are comfortable using, VLEs within
    their institutions. Many UK universities have now reached
    this stage and are ready to explore the pedagogical issues
    raised and develop the VLE tools available to them. Two
    years ago people were asking "How do I start?", now they
    are saying "I want to do more, what next". This Conference
    will address these issues and share experiences with those
    who have already taken the next steps forward.

    The Conference will include plenaries, discussion and paper
    sessions and a small Exhibition.

    The full programme is detailed on the Conference website.
