Call for Attendance, 1st International Conference "Internet of Education" 2013. (IOE 2013)
http://www.k4all.org/Internet_of_Education/ Conference Description and Motivation The goal of this event is to bring together researchers and policy makers from South-East-European universities and academia to research methods for improving the effectiveness of video-based and MOOC education, as well as promote discussion of the implications of new education and technology trends for classical university education in the SEE region. The theme and goals of the Internet of Education 2013 are very well articulated with UNESCO's vision and actions therefore the conference has been granted UNESCO patronage. We would like to promote, clarify, identify and define how emerging technologies based on artificial intelligence (AI) and computer human interaction (CHI) tools, machine learning, machine translation, user analytics, automatic assessment, visualization, social collaboration etc. can change and help create new trends in education. More specifically: how will these technologies change and influence today’s traditions in academic publishing, syllabus, validation and certification. Our aim is to form a technical and investigative think-tank of participants to debate and discuss these issues which will affect all educational levels in the future.
