About this book

Evolution of Information Technology in Educational Management As the editors of this volume we are very happy to publish a selection of the papers that were presented at the eighth Conference of Working Group 3.7 of the International Federation for Information Processing which was held in July 2008. The focus of Working Group 3.7 is on ITEM: Information Technology in Educational Management (for more information, please visit our website http://item.wceruw.org/), and the theme of its 2008 conference was on the Evolution of Information Technology in Educational Management. Our Working Group started its activities (officially we were not an IFIP Working Group at that time) in 1994 in Israel, so it made sense to look at how ITEM has evolved over the years and to reflect on what its future may be. The conference took place in Darwin (northern Australia) which even during the Australian winter is a very pleasant location for having a conference. The town of Darwin was given its name by the Captain of the Beagle (the ship on which Darwin travelled when he made the investigations on which he based his Theory of Evolution) who came to the area and named the town after the giant of science he admired.

Reviews

From the reviews:

"This book is a compendium of reports on the use of technology, both hardware and software, in building management information systems (MIS) in schools. The text is clearly an international offering, with contributors from Germany, UK, Australia, Spain, Japan, the Netherlands, Finland, Hong Kong, and Slovakia. … If you are interested in the efforts of the European and Asian communities in the development of the appropriate use of technology in the classroom, you will benefit from reading this compendium." (James Van Speybroeck, ACM Computing Reviews, July, 2009)
