</font><font face="Cambria" color="#000000">The organizers of ISEA2011
are inviting the Turkish and the international academic community to
participate in the ISEA Education Workshop and the LEAF Workshop. The
ISEA2011 Education Workshop on the theme of "brain drain/brain
gain in art, science and technology." will provide the
opportunity for engagement between local and international academics,
foster personal links and research synergies, as well as provide the
chance for young academics to gain contacts in these fields.<br>
<br>
In the ISEA2011 Education Workshop the identification and discussion
of specific key educational issues initiates the open exchange between
educational experts and workshop participants. As the changes in
economic and cultural landscapes are transforming consolidated
realities - artists, scientists and academics that work at the
intersection of art, science and technology around the world are
adopting new strategies and models of production.<br>
<br>
Who is gaining from these transformations and who is losing from them?
Can Turkey be listed amongst the contemporary winners of these
developments?<br>
<br>
Between other issues affecting contemporary education we will focus on
issues of interdisciplinarity and courses available in Turkey and
internationally at the intersection of art, science and technology
exploring their innovative methodologies. ISEA looks at the
Education Workshops as an opportunity for established and young
academics to develop new contacts and to foster new synergies both
nationally and internationally.<br>
