iLRN 2018 - Immersive Learning Research Network Conference (iLRN 2018)

Immersive Learning Research Network (iLRN) is the premier venue for presenting innovative systems and research results related to scientific, technical, and applied potential of immersive learning. The iLRN 2018 Conference Committee invites proposals for half-day and full-day workshops to be held at the iLRN Conference on June 25th, 2018 in Missoula, Montana, U.S.A. The function of the workshops is to provide a setting for focused and intensive scientific exchange among researchers interested in a specific topic. As such, workshops are the primary venues for the exploration of emerging ideas as well as for the discussion of novel aspects, and applications of established research topics. However, preference will be given to workshops whose format includes sessions that facilitate highly interactive discussions. Examples include Q&As, scenario building, trend analyses, debates, panels, or even a competition or a challenge around an interesting dataset. Although all proposal topics are welcome, preference will be given to workshop proposals that focus on the conference special call for cultural heritage and environmental sciences.
Review Criteria
The decision on acceptance or rejection of a workshop proposal will be made on the basis of the overall quality of the proposal and its appeal to a reasonable fraction of the immersive learning community. Other factors, such as degree of overlap with other workshop proposals, or issues regarding logistics, will also be taken into account when making the final decision.
In particular, workshops should address research topics which satisfy each of the following criteria:
The topic falls in the general scope of iLRN 2018
There is a clear focus on a specific technology, problem or application
There is potential to attract a sufficiently broad community interested in the topic
Potential for future impact
