CALL FOR PAPERS

MIS4TEL 2019: 9th International Conference in Methodologies and 
Intelligent Systems for Technology Enhanced Learning
with Springer AISC proceedings

Ávila (Spain), June 26th-28th, 2019
----------

SCOPE

Education is the cornerstone of any society and it serves as one of the 
foundations for many of its social values and characteristics. Different 
methodologies and intelligent technologies are employed for creating 
Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) solutions. Solutions are intelligent 
when they are rooted in artificial intelligence, stand-alone or 
inter-connected to others. They target not only cognitive processes but 
also motivational, personality or emotional factors. In particular, 
recommendation mechanisms enable us to tailor learning to different 
contexts and people, e.g., by considering their personality. The use of 
learning analytics also helps us augment learning opportunities for 
learners and educators alike, e.g., learning analytics can support 
self-regulated learning or adaptation of the learning material. Besides 
technologies, methods help to create novel TEL opportunities. Methods 
come from different fields, such as educational psychology or medicine, 
and from diverse communities co-working with people, such as making 
communities and participatory design communities. Methods and 
technologies are also used to investigate and enhance learning for 
“fragile users”, like children, elderly people, or people with special 
needs.

The 9th edition of this conference calls for novel research in TEL and 
expands the topics of the previous editions. It looks for papers 
discussing how diverse methods or technologies are employed to create 
novel approaches to TEL, valuable TEL experiences or innovative TEL 
solutions.

As it is traditional of mis4TEL, also this edition aims at catering for 
different perspectives and having complementary voices (e.g., 
engineering, computer science, education, medicine).
MIS4TEL 2019 will be held in Ávila (Spain) on June 26th-28th, 2019, in 
parallel with the PAAMS'19 International Conference.

DOCTORAL CONSORTIUM WITHIN MIS4TEL

The mis4TEL conference hosts a Doctoral Consortium. The aim of the 
Doctoral Consortium is to provide a framework where students can present 
their ongoing research work and meet other students and researchers, and 
obtain feedback on TEL research directions.

The Doctoral Consortium is intended for students who have a specific 
research proposal and some preliminary results, but who are still far 
from completing their dissertation.
All proposals submitted to the Doctoral Consortium will undergo a 
thorough review process, which aims at providing detailed and 
constructive feedback. The accepted submissions will be presented at the 
Doctoral Consortium and published in the conference proceedings.

SUBMISSION

— Review process
MIS4TEL welcomes the submission of papers with a preference for the 
topics listed in the call for papers. All submitted papers will undergo 
a thorough review process. Each contribution will be refereed by at 
least two experts in the field. Reviewers use the following criteria: 
relevance, originality, significance, quality and clarity.
The papers must consist of original, relevant and previously unpublished 
sound research efforts related to any of the topics of the conference.

— Submitting papers
MIS4TEL papers must be formatted according to the Springer AISC 
Template, with a maximum length of 8 pages in length (4 pages in 
Doctoral Consortium), including figures and references. All proposed 
papers must be submitted in electronic form, in PDF format, using the 
Paper Submission Page.

— Publication
Accepted papers will be included in the MIS4TEL Proceedings are 
published by the AISC series of Springer Verlag 
(http://www.springer.com/series/11156), which are indexed in major 
databases, e.g., Scopus. At least one of the authors will be required to 
register and attend MIS4TEL to present the paper in order to have it 
included in the conference proceedings.

— Special Issues
Authors of selected papers from MIS4TEL 2019 will be invited to submit 
an extended and improved version to a special issue in a journal venue.
