ARV 2013 - 4th STELLAR Alpine Rendez-Vous (ARV)

The Alpine Rendez‐Vous (ARV) is a now well established atypical scientific event focused on Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL). After ARV’07 in Villars (Switzerland), ARV’09 in Garmisch‐Partenkirchen (Germany) and ARV’11 in La Clusaz (France), ARV’13 will take place in Villard‐de‐Lans (French Alps). The ARV events are promoted by TELEARC and EATEL associations, which took up the legacy of the FP6 NoE Kaleidoscope and Prolearn, and the FP7 NoE Stellar, which sustained them along the past years.

One main goal of the Alpine Rendez‐Vous is to bring together researchers from the different scientific communities doing research on Technology‐Enhanced Learning, in a largely informal setting, away from their workplace routines.

Although originating in Europe, the ARV is highly open to other continents’ researchers and proposals.

ARV is structured as a set of independent parallel workshops located at the same time in the same place. Workshops may last 2 to 3 days each, half of the workshops taking place in the first part of the week and the other half in the second part, possibly with a “common day” in the middle. The target is 4 to 5 half‐day parallel workshops of 15 to 20 participants each (8 to 10 altogether). Workshops may also last the 5 days.

The ARV workshops are not like those in conferences, conference participants arriving earlier to join some workshops. In the ARV, the participants come for the workshops, and stay for the common day. This means that workshop organizers have to attract their participants
