The AIS Special Interest Group for Education (SIGED) invites you to submit

Information Systems education, practice, and research with the objective to
provide a forum in which interdisciplinary researchers and educators in
information systems can exchange ideas, techniques, and applications. SIGED
sponsors an international conference each December at which competitively
selected peer-reviewed papers, tutorials and panel discussions are
presented. A Best Paper Award is selected and announced in the conference.

All papers accepted after a double-blind peer review process will be
published in the conference proceedings. Other papers, extended abstracts,
panel discussions and tutorials will also be published in the on-line
proceedings. Authors of accepted papers will have the opportunity to make
revisions prior to submitting a final version. Best papers will be
fast-tracked for possible publication in the Journal of Information Systems
Education (JISE). Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
