International Forum of Open and Online Education

2nd and 3rd of October – University of Ottawa FSS4007

Theme

Since the 1970s, technology has been involved in streamlining the entire society and the university's education system. In fact, distance engineering has developed a mass education accessible to all. Moreover, engineering processes have helped reduce costs and standardize quality by streamlining the training process. Computers and networks have democratized learning in universities. Educational resources are always more accessible and open to all communities. However, new issues arose, which are related to the semantic of big data produced during the interactions in these training systems and instructional challenges. This conference will attempt to address these issues, particularly for the francophone context, by presenting an overview of the research and practices in the field to ultimately participate in the development and technological transformation of higher education.
