There is no doubt that web technologies have revolutionized the way we communicate and learn. Recent effects of web technologies are quite apparent with Wikipedia reaching over 2.5 million articles (English) and the founding of the OpenCourseWare Consortium, which continues to share courses of prestigious colleges for free. Furthermore, the shift in eLearning processes, practices and models is set to continue with the advent and maturity of emerging web technologies. With such an industry dynamic, there is a strong requirement for theoretical, empirical and applied research to develop a future eLearning vision incorporating the opportunities and challenges involved in realising the vision. Focusing on the eLearning community, the goal of this workshop is to bring researchers and practitioners together to explore the issues and challenges related to the emerging web technologies. In particular, the workshop aims to shed light on new web technologies and the potential pedagogical, eBusiness, social and security impacts they may have in the area.
