Call For Papers

About the Conference
Educational Data Mining is a leading international forum for high-quality research that mines
data sets to answer educational research questions that shed light on the learning process.
These data sets may originate from a variety of learning contexts, including learning
management systems, interactive learning environments, intelligent tutoring systems,
educational games, and data-rich learning activities. Educational data mining considers a wide
variety of types of data, including but not limited to raw log files, student-produced artifacts,
discourse, multimodal streams such as eye-tracking, and other sensor data. The overarching
goal of the Educational Data Mining research community is to better support learners by
developing data-driven understandings of the learning process in a wide variety of contexts and
for diverse learners.
Venue
University at Buffalo, New York, United States.
Topics of interest
Topics of interest to the conference include, but are not limited to.
● Deriving representations of domain knowledge from data.
● Detecting and addressing students’ affective and emotional states.
● Informing data mining research with educational theory.
● Contributing to theories of learning through data mining.
● Data mining to understand how learners interact with emerging genres of pedagogical
environments such as educational games, MOOCs, and exploratory learning environments.
● Analyzing multimodal and sensor data.
● Using data mining methods to provide support for teachers, parents and policy makers.
● Bridging data mining and learning sciences.
● Adapting state-of-the-art data mining approaches to the educational domain.
● Building an understanding of social and collaborative learning processes through data
mining.
● Developing generic frameworks, techniques, research methods, and approaches for
educational data mining.
● Closing the loop between education data research and educational outcomes.
● Automatically assessing student knowledge.
● Evaluating the efficacy of curriculum and interventions.

Track Papers
Papers submitted to the Journal of Educational Data Mining track
(and accepted before April 11th) will be published in JEDM and
presented during the JEDM track of the conference.
Full Papers 10 pages​. Should describe original, substantive, mature, and
unpublished work.
Short Papers 6 pages.​ Should describe original, unpublished work. This
includes early stage, less developed works in progress.
Industry Papers 6 pages.​ Should describe innovative uses of EDM techniques in
a commercial setting.
Doctoral Consortium 2-4 pages​. Should describe the graduate/postgraduate student’s
research topic, proposed contributions, results so far, and
aspects of the research on which advice is sought.
Posters/Demos 2-4 pages​. Posters should describe original unpublished work in
progress or last minute results. Demos should describe EDM
tools and systems, or educational systems that use EDM
techniques.
Workshop/Tutorials 2-4 pages​. Workshops should describe an emerging subfield and
the plan organizers have to build growth in this new area.
Tutorials should describe a tool or method, the organizers and
their expertise, and a plan for attendees to learn it in a hands-on
way.
