Apologies for multiple posting. Kind regards,
Gualtiero Volpe === 1st Intl. Workshop on Multimodal Interaction for Education (MIE 2017) In the framework of the 19th ACM International Conference on Multimodal Interaction (ICMI 2017) Glasgow, Scotland. November 13th, 2017 http://www.infomus.org/MIE2017/ --- Call for Papers --- Whilst the usage of multisensory technologies in the education area is rapidly expanding, the need for solid scientific bases, design guidelines, and appropriate procedures for evaluation is emerging. Moreover, the introduction of multimodal interactive systems in the learning environment needs to develop at the same time suitable pedagogical paradigms. The 1st International Workshop on Multimodal Interaction for Education (MIE2017) aims at investigating how multimodal interactive systems, robustly grounded on psychophysical, psychological, and pedagogical bases, can be designed, developed, and exploited for enhancing teaching and learning processes in different learning environments, with a special focus on children in the classroom. The workshop will bring together researchers and practitioners from different disciplines, including pedagogy, psychology, psychophysics, and computer science - with a particular focus on human-computer interaction, affective computing, and social signal processing - to discuss such challenges under a multidisciplinary perspective. The workshop is partially supported by the EU-H2020-ICT Project weDRAW (http://www.wedraw.eu/). The goal of weDRAW is to introduce a new teaching paradigm, based on multisensory interaction, that exploits the most effective sensory channel in children. A special issue of a journal based on selected contributions from the workshop is planned. *** Workshop topics We encourage submissions including, but not limited to, the following topics: - Open challenges in multisensory technologies for education; - Pedagogical frameworks and paradigms exploiting multimodal interaction; - Psychophysics evidence supporting multimodal interaction for education; - Design methodologies of multimodal interactive systems for education; - Techniques for multimodal analysis of learners behavior; - Models of multimodal interaction in the learning environment; - Multimodal analysis of learning-related affective states; - Multimodal analysis of social signals in the learning environment; - Multimodal interfaces for education; - Methodologies for assessment and evaluation; - Case studies; - Systems and applications (e.g., serious games). *** Author instructions We invite the submission of papers (max 8 pages) and demos (max 4 pages) with accompanying poster. According to the ICMI 2017 guidelines, the reviewing will be double blind, so submissions should be anonymous: do not include the authors' names, affiliations or any clearly identifiable information in the paper. It is appropriate to cite past work of the authors if these citations are treated like any other (e.g., "Smith [5] approached this problem by....") - omit references only if it would be obviously identifying the authors. If a non-anonymous paper has already been submitted, please re-submit with the identifying information removed. The workshop chairs are likely to desk reject non-anonymous papers. The results described in the submission must not be under consideration for publication elsewhere. Submitted papers should conform to the ACM publication format. For templates and examples please follow the links: Word: http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/pubform.doc Latex: http://www.acm.org/binaries/content/assets/publications/consolidated-tex-tem plate/acmart.zip For more information on how to format your contribution please look also at the submission guidelines of the ICMI Conference. The papers should be submitted to EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mie2017 The workshop proceedings will be published in the ACM Digital Library. *** Paper submission and acceptance deadlines Deadline for submission: July 20, 2017 Notification of acceptance: August 18, 2017 Camera-ready submission: August 31, 2017 *** Workshop organizers Gualtiero Volpe, Casa Paganini - InfoMus , DIBRIS - University of Genoa, Italy Monica Gori, U-Vip Unit, Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia, Genoa, Italy Nadia Bianchi-Berthouze, UCL Interaction Centre, University College London, United Kingdom Gabriel Baud-Bovy, RBCS Unit, Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia, Genoa, Italy Paolo Alborno, Casa Paganini - InfoMus , DIBRIS - University of Genoa, Italy Erica Volta, Casa Paganini - InfoMus , DIBRIS - University of Genoa, Italy
