EAAI-23 Call for Participation

EAAI-23 invites AI educators and researchers to share and discuss
advances in AI education.

Important dates
���  Abstract deadline: August 31, 2022 at 11:59 PM UTC-12 (anywhere on
earth)
���  Paper deadline: September 11, 2022 at 11:59 PM UTC-12 (anywhere on
earth)
���  Notification date: November 18, 2022
���  Symposium dates: February 11-12, 2023 (co-located with AAAI-23)

Submission types
EAAI-23 has a main track and four special tracks. All submissions are
subject to double-blind review. All accepted submissions are to be
presented at the symposium.

Main Track
The main track invites a broad range of papers on teaching AI and
teaching with AI. Submissions may be framed as research papers or as
experience reports. Potential topics include:
���  The design of an AI curriculum, course, or module.
���  The development or use of a tool or resource to teach AI.
���  The impact of a pedagogical or mentoring technique on AI students.

Special Track: AI for Education
Chair: Collin F. Lynch (North Carolina State University)
Educational domains provide unique task areas and challenges for AI,
and they provide unique opportunities for positive impacts. This
special track invites research on advances in AI applied to educational
tasks and domains including novel student models, intelligent learning
environments, automated assistants, and instructional support.
Submissions should be framed as research publications consistent with
the general call.

Special Track: Resources for Teaching AI in K-12
Chairs: Dave Touretzky (Carnegie Mellon) and Christina Gardner-McCune
(University of Florida)
This special track invites papers on the development and use of
resources to support K-12 AI education. Examples include online demos,
software tools, and structured activities. Submissions should follow
the standard EAAI format for an academic paper and include the
following: description of the resource; target age group; setup and
resources needed; AI concepts addressed; expected learning outcomes;
and (if possible) implementation results. Online demos and software
tools should be accompanied by brief video walk-throughs.

Special Track: Human-Aware AI in Sound and Music Mentored Undergraduate
Research Challenge
Chair: Rick Freedman (SIFT)
This special track invites papers addressing the Human-Aware AI in
Sound and Music Mentored Undergraduate Research Challenge
(https://www.yetanotherfreedman.com/resources/challenge_haaisam.html).
The objective of this year's challenge is to perform and publish
research on human-aware AI in the application of sound and music. The
broader purpose of EAAI mentored undergraduate research challenges is
to encourage undergraduate students to experience the full life-cycle
of AI research through the guidance of a mentor familiar with the
research life-cycle.
Submissions should be framed as research papers, with at least one
undergraduate (including community college) student author and at least
one mentor (faculty or Ph.D.-holding) author.

Special Track: Model AI Assignments
Chair: Todd Neller (Gettysburg College)
This special track invites assignments for AI classes. Good assignments
take a lot of work to design. If an assignment you have developed may
be useful to other AI educators, this track provides an opportunity to
share it. Model AI Assignments are kept in a public online archive.
This track has special submission instructions
(http://modelai.gettysburg.edu).

Review criteria

Submissions will be reviewed for:
���  Significance to the intended audience
���  Relevance to the track
���  Engagement with prior work
���  Novelty of contributions
���  Technical soundness
���  Clarity of presentation
���  Evaluation of claims/results (as applicable)
���  Engagement with questions of ethics/inclusivity (as applicable)

Submission instructions

All submissions must be anonymous for double-blind review.

Except for Model AI Assignments, which have their own format, papers
should be:
���  Up to 7 pages long, plus up to 2 pages of references
���  Per AAAI-23 style guidelines (https://aaai.org/Conferences/AAAI-23)
���  Submitted via EasyChair
(https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eaai23)

EAAI-23 will not consider any paper that, at the time of submission, is
under review for or has already been published or accepted for
publication in a refereed journal or conference. Once submitted to
EAAI-23, papers may not be submitted to another refereed journal or
conference during the review period. These restrictions do not apply to
unrefereed forums or workshops without archival proceedings.
