The 9th edition of SPDECE aims at providing an open forum for educators and computer specialists to present and discuss research on the different aspects of Technology-enhanced learning and e-learning. SPDECE topics include, but are not limited to: new teaching and learning environments, content standards and metadata, learning objects and learning designs and repositories of learning resources.

SPDECE emphasizes inter-disciplinarity and multi-disciplinarity, fostering interchange between educational and learning sciences, computing and other disciplines. The event thus welcomes papers using a diversity of kinds of research methods, including but not limited to empirical studies, ICT developments, action research and experimental studies.

SPDECE2012 will take place at Sede Ciudad de Alicante (University Venue in Alicante). This building is a neoclassical palace of the late nineteenth century, and since its origin is linked to the educational and economic activity of Alicante. It has evolved to adapt to new requirements, while retaining its basic structural elements, so it can be considered today a landmark because of its age, location and overlapping with urban history of the evolution of Alicante.
