For guidance on the range of topics and kinds of papers likely to be of interest for ASCILITE 2005, authors are invited to browse in the Conference archives (ASCILITE, 2004), and in journals publishing similar content, for example the Australasian Journal of Educational Technology (AJET, 2004). The kinds of papers may include these, for example:

• theoretical and conceptual reviews, technical reviews
• educational technology product development and implementation
• organisational, management or policy initiatives supporting educational technology developments
• development of research and evaluation methodologies for investigating technologies in education
• case studies of local experiences in implementing educational technologies
• projects in developing technology based teaching materials, resources and techniques
• curriculum and teaching development initiatives impacting on or drawing on technologies

Full papers are expected to contain major reviews, or to report on large scale case studies, evaluations, developments or projects. Concise papers are intended to provide an avenue for work in progress, for pilot studies, small scale exploratory projects, reports on highly specialised topics, brief studies on recent new developments with evaluation in progress, and similar. In exceptional cases the size limits (up to ten pages and up to four pages) may be varied by the Program Committee, assisted by Reviewer's reports.

Detailed specifications of format will be provided later via an MS Word document that you may use as a template. In summary, the page limits refer to body text 10 point Times or Times New Roman, single spaced with 3.0 cm margins all round, and including full contact and affiliation details for all authors, all tables, diagrams, figures and screen shots in their desired positions, a 200 word abstract, and all references (in APA compliant format).
