FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS: CSCL 2013
10th International Conference on Computer Supported Collaborative Learning
“To see the World and a Grain of Sand”
June 15-19, 2013, University of Wisconsin Madison, USA.
Brought to you by ISLS, hosted by the Learning Sciences program at the university of Wisconsin Madison.

About the conference
CSCL is a major international event, organized biennially by ISLS, which gathers together people involved in all aspects of the field of technology-based collaborative learning, including research, education, training and technology. CSCL invites papers on the nature of collaborative learning in technologically supported environments from empirical, theoretical, conceptual and design based perspectives.
  
Our conference theme, To see the world and a grain of sand: Learning across levels of space, time, and scale” is inspired by (and modified from) William Blake’s poem “Auguries of Innocence” reflects the unique aspect of CSCL in which interactions and learning need to be understood, supported and analyzed at multiple levels. The attention to the theoretical, methodological and technological issues of addressing research at multiple levels is highly relevant to current research in CSCL, as well as to developing an emerging understanding of the epistemological and methodological issues that will shape our intellectual efforts well into the future.
