4th Workshop on Intelligent Support for Learning in Groups
at the 17th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Education (AIED 2015)
June 22-26, 2015
Madrid, Spain
------------------------------
We are pleased to announce that the Fourth International Workshop on Intelligent Support for Learning in Groups (ISLG) will be held as a part of the 17th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Education (AIED 2015) in Madrid, Spain. The goal of this series of workshops is to bring together Artificial Intelligence in Education (AIED) researchers with learning sciences and computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) researchers to share approaches and exchange information about adaptive intelligent collaborative learning support.
Technological advances in the use of AIED and intelligent tutoring technologies over the past two decades have enabled the development of highly effective, deployable learning environments that support learners across a wide range of domains and age groups. Alongside, mass access to and adoption of modern communication technologies have made it possible to bridge learners and educators across spatiotemporal divides.
It is of high relevance to the AIED community to explore how AI techniques can be brought to bear to support collaborative learning. We aim to explore ways that the current state of the art in intelligent support for learning in groups can be informed by learning sciences research on collaborative learning principles.
We will ground our discussions on the following topics:
>>>Adaptive support for Groups
Affect processing
Multi-party dialog
Scaffolding
Automatic content extraction
Collaborative authoring
Crowdsourcing
User-generated content
>>>Instructional strategies for the social web
Argumentation
Peer mentoring and peer review
Recommendation systems
Intelligent support for massive open online courses (MOOC)
Problem- and project-based learning
>>>Interactive collaboration systems
Asynchronous vs. real-time interaction
Multi-participant educational games
Learning environment: platforms, devices, modalities, mobility …
Peer web interactions
Pedagogical agents
>>>Modeling groups/learners
Educational Data Mining
Making effective ad-hoc/long term groups
Online/integrated/automatic assessment
Predicting student skills
Techniques for sensing and processing collaborative learning activity
>>>Motivational, cognitive, social factors in Intelligent Support for Learning Groups
>>>Tools for educators
Actionable insights
Content administration
Report generation
------------------------------
We welcome papers under two categories:
>>>Short papers (6 pages). Short papers consist of authors describing their research in the area of intelligent support for learning in groups. Authors of successful submissions will give a brief firehose presentation and present a poster at the poster session during the workshop.
>>>Panel papers (2-4 pages). Panel papers explain a unique perspective on the field that the author would like to contribute. Authors of successful submissions will participate in one of panels held during the workshop.
Participation Requirements: All workshop participants are encouraged to submit at least one paper under any of these two categories. There is no restriction on the number of papers submitted by the same author. The submission of a paper is not compulsory.
Formatting: All submissions should be formatted as per ITS formatting guidelines (LNCS template). Please use the formatting instructions and templates provide at http://www.springer.com/
