SEEL-16 is a major international forum for the presentation of innovative 
ideas, approaches, technologies, systems, findings and outcomes of research and 
design and development projects in the emerging area of smart technology and 
its applications in education and training.

SEEL-16 will provide an excellent opportunity for research scientists, 
academics, engineers and practitioners to meet well-known experts from all over 
the world and to discuss innovative ideas and approaches, advances in smart 
technology and intelligent systems, state-of-the-art software and hardware 
systems, research findings and outcomes, best practices and case studies, 
national and international projects, 
institutional standards and policies, and many other topics related to smart 
education and e-Learning.

Smart Education and e-Learning 2016 will be co-located under the KES Smart
