Track Co-chairs: Xiao-Liang Shen (Wuhan University, xlshen@whu.edu.cn) Kem Z.K. Zhang (Lakehead University, zzhang54@lakeheadu.ca) Libo Liu (University of Melbourne, libo.liu@unimelb.edu.au)

Track Description: The explosion of digital technologies has impacted the whole sector of IS education and e-learning, where education providers, practitioners, and researchers explore and evaluate new ways to accommodate the demands of learners. The emerging learning context, changing social environment and the appropriate choice of technologies are now at the center of challenges.

Eyeing at the intersection of information systems and pedagogy, this track will address the opportunities and challenges created by digital technologies as a new pedagogical tool in IS Education and e-Learning. On the one hand, this track discusses innovative approaches that integrate emerging technologies to improve learners' experiences and outcomes. On the other hand, this track also shed light on the threats and challenges currently faced by IS education and e-learning and the coping strategies used to deal with them. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, e-learning has become one of the most important components of all educational institutions around the world. We particularly welcome submissions addressing the implementation of cutting-edge technologies (e.g., AI, VR/AR, Cloud computing, Big data analytics, etc.) in education, and exploring innovative IS educational practices during the COVID-19 pandemic, such as microlearning, gamification of learning, flipped classrooms, etc.

We hope this track can bring new teaching approaches and methods to the IS field and provide new learning experiences for students in IS as well as other disciplines. The focus of the track thus is on new and innovative approaches to curriculum, course design, pedagogy, and practice. In spite of this, this track aims at providing a valuable and informative platform for various stakeholders to present and discuss IS education and e-learning. We welcome high-quality research papers on any major topic of IS education and e-learning. All research methods and approaches addressing the key issues in IS education and e-learning are welcomed.

Research areas of interest include, but are not limited to: * IS curriculum design, innovation and model curricula * Innovative pedagogical approaches and evaluation in IS education * COVID-19 and e-learning innovation * Dark sides of IT in IS education and e-learning * Edutainment, gamification of learning * Educational big data and learning analytics * Social attentive user interfaces for e-learning * Autodidactism or self-learning in IS education * Workplace and lifelong education for IS discipline * IT-enabled (e.g., Mobile technology, VR/AR, AI, blockchain, etc.) innovative learning environments (e.g., MOOC, blended learning, microlearning and fragmented courses, smart and personalized education, collaborative Learning, etc.).

Important Dates: All dates and times are in Taipei Time Zone * Paper Submission System Opens: January 1, 2022 * Paper Submission Deadline: March 15, 2022 * Paper Decision Notification: Before May 1, 2022 * Camera-Ready Due: June 1, 2022 * Conference Registration Deadline: July 1, 2022
