The rapid development of information and communication technology, currently termed as Industrial Revolution 4.0, has created fundamental changes in all aspects of community life including education. The way a person learns, works and teaches has also changed to be more challenging. The challenge of current ICT in education is to utilize its various potensials in narrowing the digital gap, character building, digital educational transformation, and vocational education. Facing the upcoming challenges, Pustekkom Kemendikbud (ICT Center for Education and Culture, Ministry Of Education and Culture) has a leading role in transforming education in Indonesia for Education 4.0.
In cooperation with UT (Indonesian Open University), IDLN (Indonesian Distance Learning Network), ICDE (International Council for Distance Education), SEAMEO Secretariat, Pustekkom will organize an international symposium on open, distance and elearning (ISODEL) 2018 with a theme: “Making Education 4.0 for Indonesia”.
This event aims to provide the opportunity for policy makers, scientists, academics, teachers, researchers and practitioners from all of the world to exchange their knowledge, ideas, and experiences to support educational transformation in Indonesia towards Education 4.0. ISODEL 2018 is an excellent opportunity for those who are concerned and involved in improving education through ICT.
ISODEL 2018 will take place in Bali, 3 to 5 December 2018. As one of the global tourism destinations, Bali gives participants the opportunities to take part in the symposium as well as to enjoy the beauty of its scenery and rich culture.
