Participants' Reviews '08
ONLINE EDUCA BERLIN is, without any doubt, the best conference on e-learning in the world. This leadership is growing every year and 2008 was the best ONLINE EDUCA event, ever. Congratulations!
Dr Íñigo Babot, Universidad Ramón Llull, Spain
This year, I attended ONLINE EDUCA BERLIN for the first time, and it was an extremely positive experience. I especially enjoyed the sessions on social media, virtual worlds and teacher training. I also hosted a Knowledge Exchange Session (KES04) which gave me the opportunity to network and exchange knowledge with enthusiastic and committed peers from Greece, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Sweden and Denmark. It was a very interesting and rewarding experience.
Inger-Marie F. Christensen, University of Southern Denmark, Denmark
ONLINE EDUCA BERLIN is the place to be if you are playing in the learning and training market [...] Everything was perfect... looking forward to the next one.

As always, participating at the conference was a pleasure. It is, in my opinion, well organised and managed, attracting a large and relevant audience.

It's been a nice first conference abroad for me, which gave me lots of inspiration for a mini-conference about this subject in our own department.
Angela van Meer, Utrecht University, The Netherlands
Top notch conference! Well planned and well structured. I was amazed that over 2000 participants could enjoy themselves and get so much valuable information in such a great way.

We just wanted to […] congratulate the ONLINE EDUCA BERLIN team for the great conference you prepared this year, the organisation was excellent as well as the topics discussed during the plenary sessions and parallel sessions, etc. […] I think to have the best practice and demonstrations in the entire Potsdam III room […] was a real success.

ONLINE EDUCA BERLIN is the best professional international meeting in education. It is a live sample for collaborative learning and community building. Great job! Congratulations!
Prof Radu Jugureanu, SIVECO, Romania
As I bring a big group (35+1) and have rather short time to attend myself due to other matters to be taken care of – I do listen very carefully to my customers’ opinions. In general they were very pleased and many "oldtimers" felt this was the best OEB ever.
Marjukka Englund, TKK Dipoli, Finland
Fantastic; go there, if you can; if you can, attend as a group – it is too much to explore for one person alone.
Christine Hentschel, PricewaterhouseCoopers AG, Germany
I enjoy the ONLINE EDUCA BERLIN conferences since they provide excellent opportunities to learn about new developments in e-learning and also allow some good networking.
Jan Beniest, World Agroforestry Centre, Kenya
I try to visit ONLINE EDUCA BERLIN every 2-3 years. A good place to be updated, or find that one is more or less updated, and meet new people.
Tengel Sandtrø, The Norwegian Medical Association, Norway
3rd year at ONLINE EDUCA BERLIN, good mix of people, great venue and location, will be there next year – budget permitting!

I look forward to attending each year to review and discuss the latest trends and topics for e-learning on a global level. I have not found another conference that has such opportunity to discuss the continental issues and educational needs that effect all cultures and social aspects.
Linda Bloom, Teachers College, Columbia University, USA
Very good, highly recommended for anyone interested in the field, will attend again in the future.
