| LEARNING WITH MOOCS IEEE LWMOOCS VI - 2019 October 23 – 25, 2019, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Enhancing Workforce Diversity and Inclusion Massively open on-line courses are learning platforms delivering high-quality content to hundreds or thousands of simultaneous users. This IEEE conference provides academic and industry professionals the opportunity to discuss research into MOOC technologies as well as the practical aspects of creating and offering MOOCs to diverse worldwide audiences. Now in its sixth year, LWMOOCs is a respected international forum to collaborate, share, network, learn, and display the latest advances in MOOCs. Topics for Discussion We call for submissions from a variety of disciplines and topics. We encourage submissions that build on the theme of enhancing workforce diversity and inclusion. All submissions will be double-blind peer-reviewed, and a selection will be chosen to present a vibrant program that maximizes time for discussion and participation through a single-track threaded with poster sessions, full-length paper presentations, shorter lighting-round presentations, active-learning workshops, and keynote presentations from leading experts. Example topics, though not limited to this list, include: • Increasing diversity through educational access • Assistive and inclusive MOOC techniques • Expanding the learner community • Social implications of MOOCs • Smart education and just-in-time learning • Open content, open licensing, and delivery • International cooperation in MOOC projects • Using MOOCs in employee training • Scaffolding courses and planning curricula • On-line MOOC degree programs • Learning analytics in MOOC courses • Learning science and educational research models based on MOOCs • Learning engineers applying sound science with MOOC platforms • Machine Learning, AI, and MOOC delivery Submissions can be made at: http://lwmoocs-conference.org Location Milwaukee is a vibrant metropolitan area on the western shore of Lake Michigan in the United States.
