WEB DESIGNS FOR INTERACTIVE LEARNING

The Cornell Lab of Ornithology and the Exploratorium announce an 
invitational conference on developing and evaluating interactive 
educational web sites. Funded by the Informal Science Education 
Program at the National Science Foundation, the conference will be 
held in Ithaca, New York, from June 15-18, 2005. If you are a web 
site designer, researcher, innovator, or evaluator interested in 
helping to identify and publicize "best practices" for designing 
educational web sites that attract large audiences, please consider 
applying to attend.

The conference will assemble approximately 50 diverse individuals who 
together will explore approaches and techniques that can help 
educational web sites compete with other online activities. 
Conference participants will have most of their expenses paid, 
including airfare to and from Ithaca, four nights lodging, and all 
meals during the conference (Wednesday evening through Saturday 
afternoon).

More information and an online application form are available at www.wdil.org
