Please find enclosed the CfP for the Education Track at WWW 2003, this time taking place in Budapest, Hungary. The Education Track at WWW 2003 provides the unique opportunity to discuss and present innovative technologies, approaches and projects in the area of web supported education and learning, in the exciting context of the 12th World Wide Web Conference.
Call for Papers (Deadline: November 15, 2002)
Twelfth International World Wide Web Conference, May 2003, Budapest -- EDUCATION TRACK --
The World Wide Web has caused a revolution in the way we teach and learn. The technology enables us to provide interactive learning material in new ways, and to incorporate learning objects such as animations, videos, simulations, and educational games into the local learning experience.
To make these and other experiences possible, many educational projects do not just bring new learning material to the Web but also contribute quite a few Web-related methodologies or technology. The WWW2003 Education Track is aimed at researchers who wish to share experiences and research results that are (at least partially) domain independent and that can thus benefit other teachers and learners who wish to get more out of the Web.
Relevant topics include, but are not limited to:
* Development process of learning objects * Identification, reuse and granularity issues of learning objects * Business models for the exchange of learning objects * Agents and learning objects * Metadata specifications and standards for learning objects * Integrating (Web-based) multimedia in educational applications * User modeling in open learning environments * (On-line) adaptation to learner's knowledge, goals, interest and learning style * Web log mining applied to student progress data * Intellectual property issues arising from the use of learning objects * Social, cultural and multilingual issues in Web-based learning * Case studies in the implementation and use of educational applications in a Web-based environment * Authoring of Web-based learning material * Distributed and P2P-based learning repositories * Empirical studies of web-based educational systems * IR and text classification methods in open learning environments * Collaboration and communities in web-based educational environments
