In recent years new developments in both hardware and software, such as wireless networking, interactive and wearable displays, sophisticated graphical environments etc., opened vast opportunities for innovative learning environments both for groups and individuals.

In this workshop we want to explore how expressive media together with methods from artificial intelligence can help to enrich the learning environments of today and tomorrow.
With this explicitly wide thematical scope the special interest group of GI "Intelligent Teaching and Learning Systems" (Intelligente Lehr-/Lernsysteme) that will be organizing this workshop wants to show the potential of using artificial intelligence for innovative learning scenarios and technologies, because up to now systems based on these new technologies tend to be either technology-driven (e.g. virtual environments that do not support knowledge communication) or focussed on delivery of learning content (e.g. static web-based learning material).
Learning approaches still focus too much on static media instead of flexibly integrating expressive media and intelligent tools for learning. Especially for analysing activities, supporting reflection and learning processes, and semantic access to learning material AI methods will be of special interest.

Research and Work-in-progress papers (max. 8 pages in English or in German) focus on the following topics:

• Generic Expressive Media and Tools
  • Interactive Modelling (Simulations, Games, Worlds, Diagnosis)
  • Intelligent Objects in Content Specific Applications
  • Knowledge Communication
• AI in Group Settings
  • Intelligent Support in Distributed Learning Scenarios
  • Analysis and Evaluation of Collaborative Activities
  • Collaborative Modelling
• AI for Learning
  • Support of Teaching and Learning Processes
  • Support of Reflection: Visualization and Learning Approaches
• Practice of Teaching and Learning Systems
  • Experiences
  • Evaluation
• System Issues
  • Technologies for Innovative Learning Scenarios
  • Architectures for distributed and web-based Teaching and Learning Systems
  • Specification of Learning Environments
  • Metadata and Semantic Indexing of Learning Material
  • Re-Usability of Learning Material and System Components
  • Knowledge Markets and Repositories
