'Music Anywhere, anytime: International Symposium on Synchronous
Distance Learning'

http://issdl.org <http://issdl.org/> 

You are invited to submit a 200 word proposal to the first worldwide
Symposium on Synchronous Distance Learning 'Music Anywhere, Anytime', to
take place on 5th and 6th October 2011. The deadline for proposals is
16th May 2011. Your can also just indicate that you would like to join
in the discussions live. 

The main focus of the Symposium will be on the use of video conferencing
technology for teaching and learning. The purpose of the symposium is to
identify and develop strategies to establish synchronous distance
learning as a viable means of teaching music to anyone in the world. 

This symposium is been organised by the Manhattan School of Music (New
York); Royal College of Music (London); Peabody Institute (Baltimore)
and Yong Siew Toh Conservatory of Music (Singapore). Up to twelve
additional real-time interactive partner sites can join the symposium
through a bridge provided by Internet2 (and 30 may be able to view
through "voice activation switching"). 

We are interested in proposals from individuals and institutions.
Proposals should focus on pedagogical issues rather than technical
developments; however those demonstrating the educational use of new
technologies are welcome. To be selected to present at the symposium, a
proposal must demonstrate the use of interactive video conferencing;
collaborations between multiple sites are of particular interest.
Individuals selected may be invited to one of the four primary sites
(stipend may be available) or may present from their home site. All
proposals will be peer reviewed. 

Interactive sites must have a video conferencing system compatible with
H.264 transmission, near CD quality audio and have sufficient bandwidth.
Internet2 membership is strongly encouraged. A connection test including
audio will be required in early June. It is not required to have a
presentation at these sites, though that is also encouraged.
