                    General Information:

                    IN-TELE - an EU-funded project which aims to
                    promote the use of the Internet in schools - is
                    holding a second conference in Jena, Germany, from
                    16 to 18 September 1999. 

                    The main purpose of IN-TELE, which is supported by
                    the Telematics Applications programme, is to
                    develop conceptually new approaches to Internet
                    teaching and learning, and to promote cooperation
                    between educational institutions. 

                    University-based groups from the UK, France,
                    Sweden and Germany will present their research in
                    the fields of telematics, together with examples
                    of multimedia or Internet-based teaching projects.
                    

                    Project Manager Karsten Schmidt says he hopes the
                    Jena conference will be as successful as last
                    year's event in Strasbourg, attended by over 350
                    participants from all over Europe, and from as far
                    away as Brazil, the USA and Canada. 

                    He said: 'Jena isn't as glamorous a location as
                    Paris or Strasbourg, but we hope people will come.
                    It is a great opportunity to present our work to a
                    wide audience. IT companies, educational
                    authorities and representatives from universities
                    are all welcome.'
