Program
PROGRAM OF THE CONFERENCE
The conference will start on Wednesday, Aug. 21st, at 9h15 and end on Friday, Aug. 23rd, at 17h00. The preliminary layout, including the JURE event, is as follows:
SOCIAL ACTIVITIES
Networking dinner
We warmly invite all participants to take part in the Networking Dinner, on August 22nd, 2024 at Brauwerk Freistil Tübingen, next to the Neckar.
Tickets can be booked with your registration. The menu will be vegetarian with vegan options. Don't forget to indicate any dietary requirements when booking.
Punt Trip (Stocherkahnfahrt)
One of the highlights of Tübingen are the famous punting boats. After a long day at the conference, you can look forward to sailing across the Neckar river on a punting boat with a cool drink in your hand and discovering nature and Tübingen's beautiful old town from a different perspective.
Table Tennis Tournament
After our last conference in Zollikofen in 2022, a table tennis tournament is of course a must. Compete for a rematch or challenge your colleagues. Or end the evening simply enjoying pizza and drinks.
Lab tours
We offer you the opportunity to discover other learning and research labs with a focus on digital media. For example, you can visit the university's STEM classroom or the Future Innovation Space at the Leibniz-Institut für Wissensmedien (IWM). Here future digital possibilities for schools can be tried out, learning visions can be tested in practice and the beneficial use of the latest technologies in the classroom of the future can be worked out. The KI Makerspace (AI Makerspace), an extracurricular learning space for children, school students and young adults, has the special feature that technology with a focus on AI can be used and tried out in craft studios.
JURE Social Event
Enjoy the summer with us at the Waterfalls of Bad Urach!
We planned a nice social event for the JURE members of SIG 6 and 7 one day before the official conference starts.
On August 20, 2024, after starting the day with brunch at Café Ludwigs, we will take the train to Bad Urach for a relaxed hiking trip by the water, ending with lunch at the top of the waterfall. After a sunny day of chatting, networking, socializing, and having fun with other PhD students and JURE members, we will meet for a joint dinner at Neckarküller, which is also open for non-JURE conference participants.
In case it rains, we will spend the afternoon in Tübingen, with some fun games and workshops that we have prepared for you, instead of visiting the waterfalls.
We are looking forward to spending a great day with you. You can sign up for the JURE event as part of your conference registration.
If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact Tanja Habermeyer (SIG 6 JURE coordinator) and Salome Wagner (SIG 7 JURE coordinator) at salome.wagner@uni-tuebingen.de.

Submissions
News!
Deadline extension:
The submission deadline has been extended to March 15th!
Symposium requirements
Symposiums participants (discussant included) should be from at least 2 different countries and at least 3 different universities.
Before submitting, please notice the following general requirements:
- Proposals can be submitted via the EARLI system.
- An EARLI account is needed in order to submit a proposal and for each active conference participant (presenter/first author).
- You may not submit more than two proposals as first/presenting author.
- All submissions should be done completely anonymously.
- Please select the keywords for your proposal from the list of keywords (see submission guidelines) during your submission.
- References are not included in word count and can be uploaded as a separate anonymous pdf file.
For detailed submission requirements (including reviewing elements), have a look at our submission guidelines!
Symposia
Symposia include 4 closely related papers (12 minutes of presentation and 3 minutes for clarification questions) followed by a discussion by the discussant (10 minutes) and an exchange with the audience (15 minutes). Multiple time slots are already reserved for this presentation format.
The contributions should come from at least two different countries and three different universities (the contribution of a discussant counts as an extra country/ university). The overall proposal should include a general description (see requirements for symposium as a whole) and the paper contributions following the paper presentation format. Please prepare your proposal according to the submission guidelines.
Single paper
This format allows researchers to present their empirical or theoretical work. Presentations have a duration of 15 minutes (12 minutes of presentation and 3 minutes of discussion). Please prepare your proposal according to the submission guidelines.
Posters & Demonstrations
We plan for substantial length and high attendance poster sessions (including demo presentations). The sessions will start with 2-minute Blitz presentations in plenary, ensuring enough time for discussion to make this an interactive format. Poster sessions last 60 minutes.
ICT Demonstrations allow presenters to display, explain and familiarize users with a potentially useful teaching or research tool or method. The presentation may include references to completed research, but the point of the session is to demonstrate the tool, not present the research for criticism. The audience may offer their viewpoints and share their experiences with similar tools or different tools for the same purpose.
Please prepare your proposal according to the submission guidelines.
No-or-not-perfect data presentations
This format allows presenters to present and discuss empirical work at an early stage (research ideas or work in progress). Presentations last 15 minutes (8 minutes of presentations and 7 minutes of discussion). Please prepare your proposal according to the submission guidelines.
