The 3rd international conference »eLearning Baltics« (eLBa) 2010 will again bring together researchers, practitioners and scientists, people using eLearning products and services as well as people producing them.

eLBa 2010 will cover different aspects of teaching and learning with digital media in various settings such as classroom, university, workplace, home or mobile environments. It will address diverse topics and perspectives, technologies and theories, implementations and evaluations of eLearning from the fields of computer science, pedagogy, psychology and design. Accordingly, we invite experts from all these fields to contribute to eLBa 2010.

Same as the previous conferences, eLBa 2010 consists of three parts:

• eLBa Business: business congress and user forum,
• eLBa Science: an international scientific conference,
• eLBa Exhibition: an accompanying exhibition for eLearning products and services.

This call for paper is for eLBa Science 2010 which will be organized in two tracks:

• Track 1 »eLearning Concepts, Technologies and Methodologies« (English),
• Track 2 »eLearning Didaktik« (German).

Contributions to eLBa Science 2010 must be submitted as extended abstracts in English or German language. Accepted submissions have to be presented by at least one author at eLBa 2010 in Rostock and will be published in the conference proceedings. The eLBa Science - International Scientific e-Learning Conference is supported by »Gesellschaft für Informatik« (GI), the German network of professionals teaching, researching or working in computer science, and by the German Chapter of ACM.
