The aim of a conference is to continue an academic discussion about e-learning in higher education with a particular concern on the role of modern technologies which are implemented into teaching of economics.
The first conference dedicated to those issues, organised in November 2004 in the University of Economics in Katowice, aimed at presenting e-education and initiating a discussion about possible forms of cooperation in the area of supporting the didactic process with online education methods.
The second conference, was held in November 2005 in Warsaw School of Economics. The Warsaw conference concerned especially challenges which the academic environment had to face, ways of further development, the need of integration of institutions dealing with e-learning in Poland, good practices of coopearion and creating virtual universities - all those issues on the basis of close integration of modern technologies with traditional forms of teaching. During the meeting, results of the first conference were also presented.
