A new digital micromedia ecology, and with it new learning strategies, are emerging. The shift
to fragmented digital communication and information flows affects all aspects of daily work
and daily lifelong learning. This calls for innovative experiences, processes and technologies:
ubiquitous, personal and dynamic, casual and volatile, but still complex and effective.
What is the impact on educational issues in formal and informal learning environments, in
vocational training, higher education, and professional training?
To discuss the new challenges and opportunities for individual and organizational capacity buil-
ding, Microlearning 2008 brought together media technologists and academics, visionaries and
practitioners, entrepreneurs and corporate professionals from many countries, disciplines, and
fields of expertise.
The participants brought new visions and analyses, innovative concepts, projects, and best
practice results. The Proceedings of the 4th International Microlearning 2008 Conference
contribute to answering the questions of new media users in seven main subject fields:
New Media in Organisations, Classroom Without Walls, Corporate Learning, Mobile Training,
Web 2.0 & Education, Micromedia Environments, Quality and Evaluation.
