Dear Gustaf Neumann,

CSEDU 2012 (4th International Conference on Computer Supported Education - http://www.csedu.org/) is now welcoming the submission of position papers whose deadline is scheduled for next January 30.

A position paper presents an arguable opinion about an issue. The goal of a position paper is to convince the audience that your opinion is valid and worth listening to, without the need to present completed research work and/or validated results. It is, nevertheless, important to support your argument with evidence to ensure the validity of your claims. A position paper may be a short report and discussion of ideas, facts, situations, methods, procedures or results of scientific research (bibliographic, experimental, theoretical, or other) focused on one of the conference topics. 
The acceptance of a position paper is restricted to the categories of "short paper" or "poster". Please check further details about position papers submission at the conference website (http://www.csedu.org/SubmissionGuidelines.aspx).

We would like to highlight the presence of the following keynote speakers: 
- Joseph Trimmer, Ball State University, United States
- David Kaufman, Simon Fraser University, Canada 
- Hugh Davis, University of Southampton, United Kingdom
Please check the website for further information (http://www.csedu.org/KeynoteSpeakers.aspx).

Submitted papers will be subject to a double-blind review process. All accepted papers (full, short and posters) will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and CD-ROM support. HZYE
The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by major international indexers, including Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISI), INSPEC, DBLP and Elsevier Index (EI). 
Best paper awards will be distributed during the conference closing session. Please check the website for further information (http://www.csedu.org/BestPaperAward.aspx).
All papers presented at the conference venue will be available at the SciTePress Digital Library (http://www.scitepress.org/DigitalLibrary/). SciTePress is member of CrossRef (http://www.crossref.org/).

	- Enhancing Student Engagement in e-Learning - ESEeL (http://www.csedu.org/ESEeL.aspx)

	- Assessment Tools and Techniques for e-Learning - ATTeL (http://www.csedu.org/ATTeL.aspx)

Workshops, Special sessions, Tutorials as well as Demonstrations dedicated to other technical/scientific topics are also envisaged: companies interested in presenting their products/methodologies or researchers interested in holding a tutorial are invited to contact the conference secretariat. Workshop chairs and Special Session chairs will benefit from logistics support and other types of support, including secretariat and financial support, to facilitate the development of a valid idea.

Please check further details at the CSEDU 2012 conference web site (http://www.csedu.org). There you will find detailed information about the conference structure and its main topic areas.
