2008 Hawaii International Conference on Education Honolulu, Hawaii Welcome to the Sixth Annual Hawaii International Conference on Education

Aloha! We welcome you to the Sixth Annual Hawaii International Conference on Education. This event offers a rare opportunity for academics and other professionals from around the world to share their broad array of perspectives. True to its primary goal, this conference provides those with cross-disciplinary interests related to education to meet and interact with others inside and outside their own discipline. The international attendees to this conference bring a variety of viewpoints shaped by different cultures, languages, geography and politics. This diversity is also captured in the Hawaii International Conference’s unique cross-disciplinary approach. The resulting interaction energizes research as well as vocation. With Waikiki Beach, Diamond Head and the vast South Pacific as the backdrop, this venue is an important dimension of this conference. For centuries a stopping place of explorers, Hawaii has historically been enriched by the blend of ideas that have crossed our shores. The Hawaii International Conference on Education continues this tradition in the nurturing spirit of Aloha. Along with its ideal weather and striking beauty, the Hawaiian Islands provide natural elements to inspire learning and dialogue. The 2007 conference was a great success. We hosted more than 1,250 participants representing more than 40 countries. Thank you for joining the 2008 Hawaii International Conference on Education!

The 2009 Hawaii International Conference on Education will be held January 4 – 7, 2009 at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Beach Resort & Spa in Honolulu, Hawaii. Please check our website in early April for more details! http://www.hiceducation.org/ E-mail: [email protected] Phone: (808) 542-4931
