Objectives and topics

“Collective Computational Intelligence in Educational Context” (ColEdu) aims at bringing together practitioners, industrial representatives and researchers from diverse areas, such as social network analysis, data and web mining, machine learning, intelligent agents, learning sciences, psychometrics among others to share their experience, present current research results and discuss the application of computational collective intelligence tools for designing and supporting the learning processes. Papers reporting problems and proposing solutions in order to improve the educational process such as predicting performance and drop-out, planning tasks, creating personalized learning paths, recommending activities, providing feedback to teachers, students and other stakeholders and many others are encouraged. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

• Learner modeling

• Mining assessment data

• Mining collaboration data

• Mining browsing or interaction data

• Educational process mining

• Data-driven adaptation and personalization

• Mining social behavior

• Agent-based models

• Recommender systems in on-line learning

• Text mining and Web mining in education

• Intelligent tools for collaborative learning

• Context aware environments

• Other related topics
