Connectionists: Deadline extension 1st Int. W. on Education through Advanced Software Engineering and Artificial Intelligence

[Benoit Frenay]

Deadline has been extended to *June 10th* for the 1st International 
Workshop on EducationthroughAdvanced Software Engineeringand Artificial 
Intelligence.  It will be co-located with ESEC/FSE '19at Tallin, Estonia 
on Monday 26 August 2019.


    Call for Papers

In the past years, with the development and widespread of digital 
technologies, everyday life has been profoundly transformed. The general 
public, as well as specialized audiences, have to face an 
ever-increasing amount of knowledge and learn new abilities. The EASEAI 
workshop addresses that challenge by looking at software engineering, 
education, and artificial intelligence research fields to explore how 
these fields can cross-fertilize and benefit from each other. 
Specifically, this workshop brings together researchers, teachers, and 
practitioners who use advanced software engineering tools (such as 
software development tools and methods, productivity tools, software 
inspection and analysis tools, automated testing techniques, etc.) and 
artificial intelligence techniques in the education field as well as 
researchers and teachers in education science who tackle how to improve 
awareness regarding digital technologies through a transgenerational and 
transdisciplinary range of students.


    Topics of Interest

Topics include, but are not limited to:

      o

        New and unexpected usage of established software engineering
        practices in education environments.

      o

        Integration of agile methods principles in education environments.

      o

        Integration of software quality standards and methods dedicated
        to continuous improvement in education environments.

      o

        Application to serious game and gamification in the context of
        education.

      o

        Advances in automated grading of assignments.

      o

        Advances in automated feedback and recommendations to provide
        support to students.

      o

        Visualization of technical and/or scientific information in
        various fields (chemistry, software engineering, physics,
        history, sociology, etc.).

      o

        Efforts related to the improvement of usability of advanced
        tools for non experienced users.

      o

        Dropout prediction in learning environments using machine learning.

      o

        Feedback on case studies using cutting edge techniques, methods,
        and tools applied to educational environments.

      o

        Improvement of computational thinking skills and digital
        literacy through software engineering.

      o

        Integration of software engineering and artificial intelligence
        research into teaching and training.

      o

        Introduction to artificial intelligence and machine learning
        principles for younger audiences.


    Types of Submissions

We invite original papers in the conference format (two columnsACM 
sigconf publication format 
<https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template>) describing 
positions and new ideas (short papers up to 4 pages) as well as new 
results and reporting on innovative approaches (long papers up to 8 
pages). All accepted papers will be published in the ACM digital 
library, together with the other ESEC/FSE 2019 workshops proceedings. 
The review process is single-blind. Each contribution will be reviewed 
by at least three members of the programme committee.

The workshop also welcomes presentations of previously peer-reviewed 
published papers. We will invite authors to submit a one-page extended 
abstract that will not be included in the proceedings. As previously 
published papers have been already reviewed and accepted, they will not 
be reviewed again for technical content. If needed, the presentations 
propositions will be prioritized, based on the content and structure of 
the sessions.


    Important Dates
