CALL FOR PAPERS
AI4HE – Special Session on Artificial Intelligence for Higher Education


SCOPE

Advances in generative AI are challenging the established structures, roles, and practices of higher education. Technologies such as large language models, autonomous agents, multi-agent systems, adaptive tutoring systems, and AI-driven analytics are transforming how universities approach teaching, learning, assessment, and institutional governance.

The AI4HE Special Session (Artificial Intelligence for Higher Education) explores how AI can be meaningfully integrated into university environments. The session brings together technological, organizational, and educational perspectives to better understand the evolving role of AI in higher education systems.

We welcome contributions addressing generative AI, intelligent agents and tutoring systems, AI-supported assessment and feedback, institutional transformation, AI literacy and competence development, and governance frameworks for AI adoption.

Submissions may include conceptual research, theoretical models, empirical studies, case reports, design science artifacts, and technical implementations.

Topics include, but are not limited to:

- AI-Enhanced Teaching and Learning Methodologies
- Intelligent Agents, AI Tutors, and Autonomous Educational Systems
- AI-Supported Assessment, Feedback, Analytics, and Academic Integrity
