ITS 92: Call for paper ---------------------- Second International Conference on Intelligent Tutoring Systems Montreal June 10-12 1992 The International Conference on Intelligent Tutoring Systems in 1992 will focus on a broad spectrum of research concerned with how artificial intelligence and other advanced technologies can be applied to education and training. The conference will be concerned both with the current state of the art as well as serving as a reference basis for future research directions. There will be provocative panels on "hot topics" in the field, demonstrations of working systems and prototypes. In conjunction with ITS-92, industries will exhibit their advanced technologies for computers in education, learning and training.

Call for Panels --------------- Propositions for panels (2 pages) can be sent also to the above address. They will be reviewed by the panels committee Call for Demonstrations ----------------------- ITS-92 will offer the opportunity to present working prototypes. Special demonstration sessions will be set up. We invite people interested to present their prototypes to submit a short (3-4 pages) description of their systems. These descriptions will be reviewed by the exhibition committee and those accepted will be published as complement to the proceedings. --------------- IMPORTANT DATES --------------- Submission deadline: December 1, 1991 Acceptance notification: February 15, 1992 Camera-ready copies: March 15, 1992 -- Samy Bengio res.
