This transformation profoundly affects the education of new generations, who require access to cutting-edge knowledge in the STEAM disciplines (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics). The STEAM framework is gaining global adoption, all over the world instructional designers, technologists and scientists are conducting research on the implementation of STEAM education. Its application is diverse and spans all levels of education. In this context, technology plays a pivotal role. Therefore, it is imperative to develop strategies and mechanisms through which researchers, experts from various knowledge domains, and educators can facilitate participatory, interactive, sensory, and experimental activities based on STEAM in which students can actively engage. With this purpose in mind, our proposal seeks to extend a warm invitation to researchers and professionals worldwide who are engaged in scientific and technological advancements. We highly value the potential for development that can be harnessed in classrooms across various educational levels. Additionally, we provide a scientific and academic platform aimed at disseminating best practices in STEAM education. Our forum emphasizes outstanding teaching practices in MATHEMATICS, AI, ROBOTICS, HCI, and SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT that align with the global context of STEAM and leverage technology to enhance learning across diverse educational levels and contexts. ----------------------------------------------------------- *Topics of Interest* ----------------------------------------------------------- Topics of interest for this special issue include, but are not limited to: * Technology in STEAM Education. * Virtual Pedagogical Practices in STEAM. * Technological Environments for Teaching Science. * Teaching Math, Robotics, Chemistry, Biology, Physics, and Stats with ICT. * Digital Science Teacher Training. * Collaborative Science Learning with Technology. * Computational Thinking in Education. * Educational Robotics. * Educational Gamification. * AI and Machine Learning in Science Education. =========================================== /*Submission guidelines and procedure*/ ---------------------------------------------------------- All submissions (abstracts and later final manuscripts) must be original and may not be under review by another publication.

[ACM IUI 2024] Call for Doctoral Consortium Submissions

by Wanling Cai

* We apologize if you receive multiple copies of this CfP * * Online version: https://iui.acm.org/2024/call_for_doctoral_consortium.html ** ACM IUI 2024 - Call for Doctoral Consortium Submissions** 29th International ACM Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces (ACM IUI 2024) Greenville, South Carolina, USA, March 18-21, 2024 https://iui.acm.org/2024/ ** Overview ** The IUI 2024 Doctoral Consortium (DC) provides students an opportunity to present and receive feedback about their research in an interdisciplinary workshop, under the guidance of a panel of mentors selected from senior researchers in the field. We invite students who feel they would benefit from this kind of feedback—the ideal participant is a doctoral student about two years from finishing their Ph.D. We will also consider advanced Master's students and junior Ph.D. students provided their research plan is sufficiently developed to benefit from the discussion at the DC. Submissions will be selected by the DC chairs and potentially other reviewers. The strongest candidates will be those who have a clear topic and research approach and who have made some progress, but are not too far along in their research so that they can still reshape their research topic or approach. The final version of accepted Doctoral Consortium submissions will be included in the main conference proceedings published in the ACM Digital Library. The Doctoral Consortium workshop will take place as a separate session in parallel to workshops and tutorials, and DC participants will have the opportunity to present their research in the poster session during the main program. Complimentary/reduced conference registration will be available for students. Doctoral Consortium participants will also be given high priority when applying for the student travel awards, under the precondition that they agree to assist as student volunteers in the organization of the event. ** Objectives ** The objectives of the Doctoral Consortium are to: * Serve as a supportive setting to provide/receive feedback on students' current doctoral research as well as guidance on future research directions; * Offer each student comments and fresh perspectives on their work from researchers and students outside of their own institution; * Promote the development of a supportive community of scholars and a spirit of collaborative research; * Contribute to the conference goals through interaction with other researchers and conference events. ** Submission Instructions ** If you are unsure about eligibility or submission requirements, please do not hesitate to email us at dc2024(a)iui.acm.org<mailto:dc2024@iui.acm.org>! To apply for the Doctoral Consortium, two steps are required: Please submit a single PDF containing your technical submission (for details see below) via PCS by January 9.
