Camera-ready version due: 13 January 2017
Workshop date: 13 March 2017
DESCRIPTION
New technologies are changing the way we learn and teach. Emerging technologies such as social semantic web, cloud computing, and the growing popularity of mobile devices, embedded devices and adaptive context-aware technologies are leading to a paradigm shift in the way educational services are provided towards a “smart learning”. Mobile and smart learning environments allow for accessing and interacting with digital resources in learning systems anytime and anywhere with intelligent, adaptive and appropriate guidance, support, suggestions and customizations.
Through technologies and approaches such as ubiquitous learning and adaptive learning, learning becomes adaptable, personalized, flexible, and suitable to meet diverse and rapidly changing technologies, environments and learner needs, while opening unprecedented possibilities for education. The “Intelligent Interfaces for Ubiquitous and Smart Learning” workshop aims to bring together researchers from industry and academia to address the challenges of the intelligent user interfaces and smart learning fields, discuss new ideas and present their research to the scientific community in order to enhance the methodologies and techniques for intelligent learning environments for the 21st century.
