2011 - AIED Workshops, 15th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Education AIED 2011

CALL FOR WORKSHOPS


AIED2011 workshops are designed to provide an opportunity for in-depth discussion of current and emerging topics of interest to the AIED community. We encourage workshop proposals that bring together people working on new and developing research topics that favor highly interactive discussions. Other factors that will be taken into account to evaluate the proposals include coherence, broad audience and cross-disciplinary appeal, novelty and innovation of the topic, and the existence of previous successful editions.

Proposals should provide information justifying why a workshop on this topic is beneficial and of interest to the AI community. Workshop organizers and participants are also expected to attend the main AIED conference.
