========================================================

CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS

The 11th International Conference on Web-based Learning (ICWL 2012)
2-4 September 2012, Sinaia, Romania
http://www.hkws.org/conference/icwl2012/

========================================================

The ICWL 2012 organizing committee invites proposals for workshops to be
held in conjunction with the main conference. The purpose of a workshop is
to provide participants with the opportunity to present and discuss novel
research ideas related to active and emerging topics in Web-based
learning.

The workshop organizers will be responsible for setting up the workshop
website, coordinating the review process and collecting the camera ready
papers. Workshop authors are required to have a full registration to the
main conference. Based on last years' tradition, we plan to publish
accepted workshop papers in a separate post-proceedings volume in Springer
Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) (pending).

Researchers from academia and industry are invited to take this
opportunity and submit WORKSHOP PROPOSALS on hot topics in the scope of
the conference. All proposals will be reviewed and evaluated by the ICWL
2012 organizing committee.
