Subject: [prolearn] SWEL @ AH'04: 2nd CFP: Semantic Web for Adaptive Educational Hypermedia Date: Thursday 08 April 2004 19:34 From: Martin Wolpers wolpers@learninglab.de To: prolearn prolearn@learninglab.de, wp145-prolearn@learninglab.de
This might of interest to some of you. Please excuse cross-posting.
*-----------------------------------------------------------------* * * * SW-EL'04: Workshop on Applications of Semantic Web Technologies * * for Adaptive Educational Hypermedia * * * * * * in conjuction with AH 2004: * * International Conference on Adaptive Hypermedia * * and Adaptive Web-Based Systems * * (Eindhoven, The Netherlands, August 23-26, 2004) * * * *-----------------------------------------------------------------* * * * http://wwwis.win.tue.nl/SW-EL04/swel-ah.html * * * *-----------------------------------------------------------------*
This workshop will focus on the use, engineering and application of semantic web technologies and standards for the needs of adaptive educational hypermedia and discuss issues with respect to using adaptive hypermedia as an e-learning medium and to the various ways of constructing courseware and modelling the learner.
SWEL'04 follows the successful workshop on Concepts and Ontologies in Web-based Educational Systems, held in conjunctions with ICCE'2002 in Auckland,New Zealand (http://wwwis.win.tue.nl/~laroyo/ICCE2002_Workshop/CFP.htm).
------------------------------------------------------------------ Workshop goals ------------------------------------------------------------------ * To discuss the current state-of-the-art of the applications of semantic web technologies and standards in adaptive educational hypermedia. * To attract the interest of the related research communities to the problems in adaptive educational hypermedia and serve as an international platform for knowledge exchange and cooperation between researchers. * To provide feedback to educational and semantic web standardization bodies.
---------------------------------------------------------------------- Workshop topics ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to:
* Using semantic web technologies to improve: - personalization, adaptation and user modeling - information retrieval - authoring of educational AHS.
* Web standards and metadata specifications for educational AHS: - information exchange protocols between educational AHS - consistency in standards evolution - mappings between existing semantic web and educational standards - educational metadata specification languages.
* Semantic web-based educational AH architectures.
* Semantic Web services for educational AH.
* Real-world systems, case studies and empirical research for semantic web-based educational AH.
The topics can be approached from different perspectives: theoretical, systems engineering, application, case study and system evaluation, etc. All contributions are required to state explicitly in the abstract which topic they are addressing.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ Important Dates ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Expression of interest: 24 May 2004 Paper submission: 1 June 2004 Notification: 1 July 2004 Camera-ready submission: 12 July 2004 Workshop date: 23 August 2004
------------------------------------------------------------------------- Submission ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The participants can submit full (up to 10 pages) or short (up to 4 pages) position papers. The accepted papers will be published in the workshop proceedings. All papers should be formatted according to the Springer LNCS guidelines.
Submit your papers in electronic form to the workshop co-chairs at l.m.aroyo@tue.nl and dichevad@wssu.edu in (*.doc), (*.rtf) or (*.pdf) formats no later than 1 June 2004.
------------------------------------------------------------------------- Workshop proceedings ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The papers of the workshop will be printed in add-on to the main conference proceedings. The proceedings will be also made available online on the workshop web site. Possibilities will be investigated to publish the best workshop papers in a special issue of a refereed journal (e.g. IJCEELL).
