It is expected that no one with access to a paper under review will make any inappropriate use of the special knowledge, which that access provides. Contents of abstracts submitted to conference program committees should be regarded as privileged as well, and handled in the same manner. The Conference Publications Chair shall ensure that referees adhere to this practice. Organizers of IEEE conferences are expected to provide an appropriate forum for the oral presentation and discussion of all accepted papers. An author, in offering a paper for presentation at an IEEE conference, or accepting an invitation to present a paper, is expected to be present at the meeting to deliver the paper. In the event that circumstances unknown at the time of submission of a paper preclude its presentation by an author, the program chair should be informed on time, and appropriate substitute arrangements should be made. In some cases it may help reduce no-shows for the Conference to require advance registration together with the submission of the final manuscript.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] Special Issue on "Learning Analytics" in International Journal of Technology Enhanced Learning Datum: Mon, 04 Feb 2013 13:32:33 +0100 Von: Zinayida Petrushyna <petrushyna(a)i5.informatik.rwth-aachen.de> An: Verborgene_Empfaenger: ; We apologize for cross-posting! --------------------------------- CALL FOR ARTICLES: --------------------------------- International Journal of Technology Enhanced Learning Special Issue on "Learning Analytics" Submission Deadline: /7 March, 2013/ --------------------------------- From primary school to university and workplace settings, both formal and informal learning scenarios are gaining complexity with the combination of individual and group tasks as well as distance activities. Also, the integration of a wide range of technologies such as virtual and personal learning environments (VLEs/PLEs), Web 2.0 tools, tangible and virtual or mobile tools is becoming increasingly common in the learning environment. Thus, terms such as "distributed learning environments", "informal learning", "ubiquitous learning" and "learning across spaces" are becoming increasingly popular. In such settings, organizations and participants ask for information that raises their awareness and helps them to realize what is happening in the learning scenario. Frequently, current solutions provide an overwhelming amount of information that does not address users' needs. Therefore, teachers cannot react in time and learners cannot self-regulate their learning. The acknowledgment of these needs is exemplified by the recent emergence of learning analytics, a research area that draws from multiple disciplines such as learning sciences, information and computer sciences, sociology, psychology, statistics and educational data mining. According to the Society for Learning Analytics (SoLAR - Society for Learning Analytics: http://solaresearch.org/), /"Learning analytics is the measurement, collection, analysis and reporting of data about learners and their contexts, for purposes of understanding and optimizing learning and the environments in which it occurs"./ Among the different challenges that need to be addressed in this research area, *the aim of this special issue is to move forward in the application of learning analytics in authentic learning scenarios, both in formal and informal settings*. These learning scenarios may be in academic as well as workplace environments. Thus, we encourage researchers and practitioners from technological and educational domains to submit original research highlighting conceptual (novel concepts, models or theories), technical (novel tools and systems based on learning analytics) and empirical (case studies and evaluations) works that contribute to the application of learning analytics in authentic learning scenarios. Contributions can be of the following types: *Research articles*(5000-7000 words): mature work requiring lengthy explanations of conceptual background, methodology, data analysis and evaluation. These submissions should state: the major issue(s) addressed, potential significance of the work, the theoretical and methodological approach(es) pursued, major findings, conclusions and implications. *Research notes*(3500-5000 words): papers describing work that makes significant contributions, but which is still in progress, of a smaller scale or which can be reported briefly. --------------------------------- *Subject Coverage* Suitable topics include but are not limited to: * Conceptual and pedagogical underpinning: * Collaborative knowledge building * Teaching techniques and strategies for online learning * Evaluation methods for TEL * Rethinking pedagogy in TEL * New models of learning enabled by analytics * Learner modelling * Privacy and ethics in learning analytics * Influence and connections between learning analytics and learning sciences, educational research methods, pedagogical models, learning design, delivery and support of learning * Technological underpinning: *Ubiquitous and pervasive technologies for TEL * Computer-supported collaborative learning * Architecture of learning environments and implications to learning analytics * Use of learning analytics in centralized (learning management systems) and decentralized (personal learning environments) settings * The limits of web analytics * Applications and case studies: *Case studies in formal and informal settings * Corporate and higher education case studies * Learning analytics applications in workplace * Visualization and analysis of group behavior and group dynamics * The study of emotion, flow and affective data in learning analytics * Data TEL: utilizing real-time data to improve teaching and learning * Estimation of group/individual performance by humans vs. automatic * Validating analytics empirically --------------------------------- *Important Dates* Submission deadline: /7 March, 2013 (EXTENDED) / Notification of authors: /9 May, 2013 //(EXTENDED)/ Submission of final papers: /6 June, 2013 //(EXTENDED)/ --------------------------------- *Guest Editors: * María Jesús Rodríguez-Triana, University of Valladolid, Spain Simone Braun, CAS Software AG, Germany Verónica Rivera-Pelayo, FZI Research Center for Information Technology, Germany Zinayida Petrushyna, RWTH Aachen University, Germany Ana Loureiro, Polytechnic Institute of Santarém, Portugal Sara Villagrá-Sobrino, University of Valladolid, Spain Ricardo Kawase, L3S Research Center, Germany Lori Lockyer, University of Wollongong, Australia Abelardo Pardo, University Carlos III of Madrid, Spain For more details visit our website: http://www.inderscience.com/info/ingeneral/cfp.php?id=1950**

Cross-organizational and particularly international and global collaboration is much more complex than within one single organization. Critical success factors of ICT collaboration in such settings are for example physical locations of collaborating partners, varying levels of ICT infrastructure, cultural similarity or differences, legal regulations or the economic environment. The role of ICT in cross-organizational, international, and global collaboration is twofold: ICT can be a collaboration enabler, but also a collaboration purpose and goal. This mini-track focuses on conceptual and empirical research that contributes to a clearer understanding of ICT collaboration processes, their challenges, success factors, and benefits in cross-organizational, international, or global settings. All methodological approaches, including case studies, surveys, literature reviews, design science etc. are welcome. SUGGESTED TOPICS Topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Processes of ICT collaboration - Success factors of collaboration technologies - Inter-organizational collaboration and ICT productivity - Conceptual frameworks of ICT collaboration in global development - Multinational teams and ICT productivit - Cross-organizational, international, or global value-chains and value-networks - Standardization of collaborative technologies and/or processe - ICT productivity studies at the country, industry, firm, or project level - Comparative cross-country research on ICT collaboratio - Country-specific case studies on cross-organizational collaboration - ICT offshoring/outsourcing into emerging economie - International ICT project management - Antecedents of cross-organizational, international, or global collaboration - Diffusion of collaborative technologies in emerging economie - ICT productivity instrument development and validation *SUBMISSION PROCEDURE:* Please submit your manuscript to the Bepress system at http://amcis2013.aisnet.org <http://amcis2013.aisnet.org> *IMPORTANT DATES:* ?
