Call for Education Track
We invite high-quality submissions to the Education Track focusing on the development, application, and evaluation of educational resources related to semantic technologies, including knowledge graphs, ontologies, and related methodologies. This track aims to bring together educators, researchers, and practitioners exploring how semantic technologies can enrich learning experiences, curricula, and educational tools. We welcome a broad range of contributions, including theoretical insights, practical implementations, and visionary ideas.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Educational Knowledge Graphs
Construction, use and findings of knowledge graphs as educational resources. - Knowledge Graphs for E-Learning
Applications of knowledge graphs in online learning environments. - Semantics in Technology-Enhanced Learning
Leveraging semantic web technologies to support TEL. - Curricula and Educational Materials
Design, development, and evaluation of courses and teaching resources centered on semantic technologies. - Pedagogical Approaches
Innovative teaching methods and best practices for integrating semantic technologies in education. - Semantic Artifacts for Education
The role of ontologies, linked data, FAIR data principle, and semantic models in educational contexts. - E-Learning Platforms and Learning Management Systems
Systems supporting education and learning with the usage of semantic web technologies. - Case Studies and Practical Applications
Real-world experiences in teaching and learning using semantic technologies. - Educational Tools
Development of educational software, frameworks, and applications aimed at supporting the education setting with semantic technologies. - AI and Personalized Learning
Intersections between semantic technologies, artificial intelligence, and adaptive learning systems.
