The Australian Flexible Learning Framework (Framework) is now calling for contributions relating to current research in learning innovation for Edition 19 of The Knowledge Tree: an E-journal of Learning Innovation. This edition is due for publication on 13 October, 2009.  To submit an article or to have an idea for an item, please contact the editorial team via email:  e-events@flexiblelearning.net.au.

The theme for Edition 19 will focus on case studies for mainstreaming e-learning. It will also explore issues connected with the role and upskilling of VET professionals within the demands of a flexible e-learning context, and the demand for effective RTO/business/community partnerships. We ask: ‘What new skill sets are needed by VET professionals and how will these be acknowledged?’

Submissions for the October 2009 Edition of The Knowledge Tree close on the 10 July. To find out more details go to guidelines for contributions.

Edition 18 of The Knowledge Tree will be published on 28 July and has a focus on e-assessment, recognition of prior learning (RPL) and e-portfolios. Allison Miller writes the lead article and along with a range of interviews and other items, watch out for a short article on ‘Dis-integrating e-Portfolios’ by Stephen Downes!
