This annual conference serves as a multi-disciplinary forum for the dissemination of information on the research, development, and applications on all topics related to multimedia/hypermedia and distance education as they apply or may apply at some stage to education for all disciplines and levels of education. We invite you to attend the ED-MEDIA 95 conference and submit proposals for papers, panels, tutorials, workshops, and demonstrations/posters. All proposals are reviewed for inclusion in the conference program. Major Topics ------------ Architectures for Educational Technology Systems Authoring Collaborative Computing Computer Mediated Communication Computer Supported Cooperative Work Country Specific Developments Distance Education Evaluation of Multimedia/Hypermedia Systems Human-Computer Interface (CHI) Issues Improving Classroom Teaching Interactive Learning Environments Integrating of Pedagogics, Didactics and CHI Knowledge Structuring Tools Language Learning Learning by Doing Media in Education Methodologies for Development of Educational Technology Systems Multimedia and Artificial Intelligence Multimedia/Hypermedia Systems Multimedia/Hypermedia Applications Navigation Network Software for Large Data Bases Novel Applications/Approaches & Ideas Pedagogical Issues Simulations for Learning Small Dedicated Applications Software for Educational Research Special Area Educational Environments Virtual Reality The Distance Education stream, which was very successful in 94, will be offered in 1995 under the auspices of IFIP Working Group 3.6 (Distance Education). ED-MEDIA 95 is sponsored by AACE, and is supported by IFIP WG 3.6, the Austrian Federal Ministry of Science and Research, the Austrian Federal Ministry for Education and Art, the Government of the Province of Styria, the City of Graz, the Austrian Computer Society (OCG), the Economic Promotion Institute of the Styrian Chamber of Commerce (WIFI Interactive Information Center), and a number of other European scientific societies. It is organised by IHM, the Graz Institute for Hypermedia Systems. Information for Presenters -------------------------- Details of presentation formats are given on the following pages. The general principles applying to all are: o All communication will be with the principal presenter who is responsible for communicating with co-presenters of that session. o The conference will attempt to secure all equipment needed for presenters. However, where special equipment is needed, presenters may need to provide their own. o All presenters must pay the registration fee (established Summer 1994). Proceedings ----------- Accepted papers will be published by AACE in the Educational Multimedia and Hypermedia Annual, 1995. This book serves as a major source book in the multimedia/hypermedia community, indicating the current state of the art in the discipline. In addition, selected papers may be invited for publication in the Journal of Educational Multimedia and Hypermedia and in a book to be published by a major international commercial publisher. Exhibition ---------- Exhibits are expected to be an integral part of the ED-MEDIA 95 conference. Companies or institutions offering multimedia/hypermedia products are invited to complete and return the Request for Information form below. Conference Background --------------------- The ED-MEDIA conference series ties together activities of AACE in publishing the Journal of Educational Multimedia and Hypermedia and the ICCAL Conference series.

Graz (population approx. 250.000) is the second largest city of Austria. Located some 150 km SW of Vienna it is the capital of the province of Styria, a province often called the "green heart" of Austria. Indeed, from high mountains in the North, to gentler ones in the West and East, to rolling hills with vineyards in the South, Graz is an ideal center for outdoor enthusiasts ... and June is an ideal time to visit! Dozens of hiking areas are within an hour drive and the Southern Austrian Lakes are just a little farther away. Graz is also a city of history: some of its buildings date back almost 1000 years, and a rocky hill with remnants of an old fortification still dominates the city. The old town is one of the most intact in central Europe. You are bound to enjoy a stroll through the beautiful old town with its many cafes and bars and street life at any time of the day or night. The fact that a modern yet elegant Casino is located just a stone's throw from a medieval armory (both in impressive buildings) is typical for this city. Graz is also a city of the arts, with its own opera house and a big-stage theatre, many smaller play-houses and a lively art, musical and literary scene. Graz is one of the few jewels of Austria that is often overlooked by tourists: come, see and feel Graz yourself!
