IADIS International Conference on
Cognition and Exploratory Learning in Digital Age (CELDA 2005 )
14-16 December 2005 - Porto, PORTUGAL
(http://www.iadis.org/celda2005)
Endorsed by: IEEE Technical Committee on Learning Technology
and Japanese Society of Information and Systems in Education

* Conference background and goals
The IADIS CELDA 2005 conference aims to address the main issues concerning
with the
evolving learning processes and supporting pedagogies and applications in
digital age.
There have been huge advancements in both cognitive psychology and
computing that
have affected the educational arena. The convergence of these two
disciplines has never
been faster before and this marriage has affected the very basis of the
academia.
Paradigms such as just-in-time learning, constructivist approaches,
student-cantered
learning and collaborative approaches have emerged, and are being
supported by
technological advancements such as simulations, virtual reality and multi-
agents systems
to name a few. This merger has created both opportunities and areas of
serious concerns.
This conference aims to cover both technological as well as pedagogical
issues related to
these developments. Main tracks have been identified (see below). However
innovative
contributions that do not fit into these areas will also be considered as
long as they are
directly related to the overall theme of the conference.
* Format of the Conference
The conference will comprise of invited talks, oral presentations for
discussion-oriented
papers, and poster sessions for work-in-progress. The proceedings of the
conference will
be published in the form of a book and CD-ROM.
Authors of the best published papers in the CELDA 2005 proceedings will be
invited to
publish extended versions of their papers in the Computers in Human
Behavior Journal
(Guest edited by Kinshuk, Demetrios G Sampson and J. Michael Spector).
* Types of submissions
Full and Short Papers, Posters and Tutorials. All submissions will go
