ITS 2006 - Call for Paper

26. 06. 2006

The 8th International Conference on Intelligent Tutoring Systems; June 26 - 30, 2006 at the National Central University, Jhongli, Taoyuan County, Taiwan

The Eighth International Conference on Intelligent Tutoring Systems provides a leading international forum for the dissemination of original results in
the design, implementation, and evaluation of intelligent tutoring systems and related areas. The conference draws researchers from a broad spectrum of disciplines ranging from artificial intelligence and cognitive science to pedagogy and educational psychology.

The conference explores intelligent tutoring systems' increasing real world impact on an increasingly global scale. Improved authoring tools and learning object standards enable fielding systems and curricula in real world settings on an unprecedented scale. Researchers deploy ITS's in ever larger studies and increasingly use data from real students, tasks, and settings to guide new research. With high volumes of student interaction data, data mining, and machine learning, tutoring systems can learn from experience and improve their teaching performance. The increasing number of realistic evaluation studies also broaden researchers' knowledge about the educational contexts for which ITS's are best suited. At the same time, researchers explore how to expand and improve ITS/student communications, for example, how to achieve more flexible and responsive discourse with students, help students integrate Web resources into learning, use mobile technologies and games to enhance student motivation and learning, and address multicultural perspectives.

ITS 2006 will be supported by a strong international program committee that will ensure full and effective refereeing of all submitted papers.
