EC-TEL 2013: Eighth European Conference on Technology Enhanced Learning "Scaling Up Learning for Sustained Impact"
17-21 September 2013, Paphos, Cyprus
NEWS
We are pleased to announce a keynote talk by Sir John Daniel and Ms Stamenka Uvalic-Trumbic on "Making Sense of MOOCs:The Evolution of Online Learning in Higher Education".
More keynotes to follow.
The deadline for full submissions was extended to 9th of April to give authors some space for family time over Easter.
!NOTE: submission of an abstract of your contribution is still required by 25 March! There will be no more extensions to these deadlines.
Updated guidelines for Demo and Poster submissions
While Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) has created enormous changes in schools, universities and at the workplaces, innovations have tended to be unsustainable. Too often, initiatives need a high degree of effort to be sustained, and are consequently endangered when funding stops. Many initiatives now focus on scaling up bottom-up initiatives to create higher and more sustainable impact. These initiatives require an interdisciplinary perspective in TEL research and development, drawing on core disciplines of Computer Science, Education, Psychology, Cognitive Science, and Social Science. This blend of research traditions has always been a strength of EC-TEL and its vibrant community.
We invite contributions for demonstrations, workshops and project meetings, as well as original research papers. A doctoral consortium will also be organized concurrently with the workshops. See the website for more details: http://ec-tel.eu/
Note: the European Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (eCSCW) conference will be hosted from 21-25 September at the same location as EC-TEL 2013. So there is a good opportunity to visit both conferences at the same time.

DEMONSTRATIONS
Please submit a concise, max. 4 pages description of a (running!) prototype, clearly showing how your technological innovation realizes a learning innovation. All accepted demonstrations will be invited to participate in the EC-TEL 2013 Demo Sprint session. The audience will vote for the best EC-TEL prototype in this session and the winner will be awarded. We encourage demonstration submissions that complement an EC-TEL research paper submission. Please find the expected structure of demo submissions at the EC-TEL website: http://ec-tel.eu/index.php/call-for-papers
POSTERS
Posters report on significant work in progress. We are planning an interactive poster and demonstration session in which you can present your work and elicit feedback from EC-TEL participants. Please submit a paper up to a maximum of 4 pages long describing your work and the results that you plan to achieve until September 2013. A 2-page summary of this will then be published within the EC-TEL proceedings. Please find the expected structure of poster submissions at the EC-TEL website: http://ec-tel.eu/index.php/call-for-papers
WORKSHOPS
EC-TEL 2013 offers the opportunity to host several workshops. Parties interested to organize a workshop are asked to submit a proposal of maximum 4 pages long outlining the theme of the workshop, workshop format, expected participants and domains addressed, dissemination activities, workshop organizing committee, and organizational requirements. Proposals should be submitted via the EasyChair system of EC-TEL. We are exploring possibilities for arranging publication of all workshop papers in a post-conference proceedings volume to be published by Springer. Workshop
organizers should indicate in their proposals whether they would like to contribute to such a post-conference proceedings volume, or whether they are targeting other high-quality publication outlets such as international peer-reviewed journals.
