Dear friends,

Have you registered <http://www.diplomacy.edu/registrations/online-learning-day> 
yet for next week's Online Learning Day, on 17 April? No matter where you are located,
we would like to invite you to join our morning online debate. If you are based in Geneva,
you can also come to our evening get-together at Diplo's office.

Online Learning Day is part of the Geneva E-diplomacy Platform
<http://www.diplomacy.edu/e-diplomacy>  and aims to facilitate an informed
discussion on online learning and to encourage an exchange of views and experience among
providers of online learning solutions.

In preparation, we invite you to try out our short quiz
<http://www.diplomacy.edu/onlinelearning-quiz>  to test your knowledge of online
learning, and to complete a short online poll
<http://www.diplomacy.edu/onlinelearning-themes>  to help us narrow down the debate
themes for the morning session.

What to expect:

The morning session (10.00 - 12.00 CET) will take place online and will feature debates on
current trends in online learning, including: 
* opportunities and limitations of massive open online courses (MOOCs)
* social media tools to enrich online learning
* teaching practical topics (protocol, negotiations) effectively online

The evening session will be an informal meet-up style gathering at Diplo's office in
Geneva (18.00 - 20.00 <tel:20.00>  at 56, Rue de Lausanne), with refreshments.
Geneva-based providers of online learning will briefly present their training programmes,
and participants will have the opportunity to discuss and ask questions in an informal
setting. We will also hear directly from participants who have attended some Geneva-based
online learning courses.

This event is intended for anyone interested in online learning in the domain of
diplomacy, international relations and global policy processes.

For more information and to register visit:

Horejsova at terezah(a)diplomacy.edu <mailto:terezah@diplomacy.edu> . (Note:
Registration is required!

Best,
Stephanie
