Call for Papers: CROSSMMLA @ LAK 2023 Workshop: Leveraging Multimodal Data for Generating Meaningful Feedback
To be held face-to-face on March 13, 2023, in Arlington, Texas, United States, in conjunction with the LAK 2023 conference.
The CROSSMMLA workshop series has focused on collecting and analysing multimodal data across the physical and virtual spaces for understanding and optimising learning processes.
In this year's CROSSMMLA workshop, we invite all submissions focusing on multimodal learning analytics, with a particular interest in approaches to "closing the feedback loop" by leveraging multimodal data for generating meaningful feedback. The workshop will be conducted as a synchronous face-to-face one-day workshop on March 13, 2023, in Arlington, Texas, United States. The workshop will serve as a forum to exchange ideas on how we, as a community, can use our knowledge and experiences from CROSSMMLA to design new tools to analyse evidence from multimodal and multichannel data.
Workshop topics
In this Call for Proposals, we invite submissions for position papers and demonstrations for discussion during the workshop.
The submissions for the position papers are focused more directly on the theme of this year's: "closing the loop in multimodal learning analytics". A particular focus will be on how MMLA can contribute to research and practice to support learning along with these themes:
- Logistical: organisation and planning of multimodal data collection, implementations of MMLA in real-world settings, fidelity issues, and real-world evaluations;
- Methodological: methods, analyses, technical improvements, data cleaning;
- Pedagogical: integrating our tools in existing educational settings, evaluating their impact on learning gains, and adoption by instructors and students;
- Ethical: related to the moral principles and aspects of the MMLA work, fairness, inclusion, transparency, accountability, surveillance, performance orientation etc.
The submissions for the demonstration may include one or more of the following topics:
- Sensor data gathering setups and prototypes, data analysis and annotation methods and tools
- Learning activities and pedagogical designs that could benefit significantly from CROSSMMLA techniques
- Examples of CROSSMMLA research designs or case studies.
Please check the workshop website for more information about topics and expected contributions: https://crossmmla.org/.
