ITS 2010: the Tenth International Conference on Intelligent Tutoring
Systems — June 14-18, 2010, in Pittsburgh, USA

Call for papers

Conference website: www.cmu.edu/its2010

We invite contributions to the ITS 2010 conference, to be held June
14-18, 2010. The technical sessions will take place June 15-17, with
June 14 and 18 devoted to workshops and tutorials. The conference will
be in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA, host to the recent G-20 summit and
rated the USA’s most livable city by The Economist.

Just prior to ITS 2010, the Third International Conference on
Educational Data Mining (EDM 2010) will also take place in Pittsburgh.
See educationaldatamining.org/EDM2010.

The ITS 2010 conference is part of an on-going bi-annual series of
top-flight international conferences on the use of advanced educational
technologies that are adaptive to users or groups of users. These highly
interdisciplinary conferences bring together researchers in the learning
sciences, computer science, cognitive or educational psychology,
cognitive science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and
linguistics.

The theme of the ITS 2010 conference is Bridges to Learning. The
conference will address the use of advanced technologies as bridges for
learners and facilitators to robust learning outcomes. It will encompass
all aspects of learning with advanced technologies, including cognitive,
social, affective, and motivational aspects. The conference will address
the design, development, use, and evaluation of advanced educational
systems in a wide variety of contexts, as well as the mining of data
about student learning generated by such systems. Papers describing
empirical studies are particularly encouraged.
