Tracks

 

The focus of the conference is improving teaching and learning with technologies and finding better ways to inform. Specifically, most papers will explore the following:

 

    InSITE: InFORM Issues in effectively and efficiently informing clients through IT

    InSITE: TeLE Technology Enhanced Learning Environments, Lifelong Learning, Teaching & Learning using IT

    InSITE: TeachIT Research topics related to teaching IT

 

We welcome explorations into issues of teaching doctoral students, teaching using the case method, cybersecurity, and all student research.

 

Special Tracks this Year

 

In addition to the regular tracks, this year we encourage submissions on these two special tracks:

 

    Fake News (truth in informing) (https://www.informingscience.org/Uploads/CfP_Fake_News.pdf )

    Transdisciplinarity and Knowledge Transfer (https://www.informingscience.org/Uploads/TD_CFP.pdf )

 

Fast-tracking of Best Papers to Informing Science Institute journals

 

You may submit a work in progress or your completed research. Authors who submit full papers that are rated highly by their peer reviewers will be invited to have their paper fast-tracked for publication in one of the Informing Science Institute's many journals. Fast-tracked papers require only additional editorial review and so can be published upon completion more quickly than those that require an additional round of external review.

Our Journals are listed at https://www.informingscience.org/Journals
