***  2nd CALL FOR PAPERS  ***

Recently, the increase in the dissemination of interactive learning
environments has enabled the collection of huge amounts of data. A popular
and effective way of discovering new knowledge from large and complex data
sets is data mining. As such, the ADML'07 workshop invites papers that study
how to apply data mining to analyze data generated by learning systems or
experiments, and, also, how discovered information can be used to improve
adaptation and personalization of the learning environment. Interesting
problems data mining can help to solve
are: what are common types of learning behaviour (e.g. in online systems),
how to predict the knowledge and interests of a user based on past
behaviour, how to partition a heterogeneous group of users into homogeneous
clusters, etc. The ADML'07 workshop is organized in conjunction with the
EC-TEL'07 conference. The workshop is related to the series of Educational
data mining workshops organized in conjunction with the AAAI'05, AIED'05,
ITS'06, AAAI'06, AIED'07, UM'07, and ICALT'07 conferences. It aims at
providing a focused international forum for researchers to present, discuss
and explore the state of the art of applying data mining in e-Learning and
of evaluating the usefulness of discovered patterns for adaptation and
personalization. The workshops will also outline promising future research
directions. The ADML'07 workshop invites submissions addressing all aspects
of applying data mining for adaptation and personalization in e-learning
systems. The list of topics of interest includes:

* methods and approached for data mining in e-Learning,
* characteristics of educational data and how to deal with them,
* learning browsing behaviour; e.g., searching for patterns in log-data from
(time-series) experiments,
* data mining for user modelling,
* data mining for predicting user (potentially changing) interests,
* mining differences in user's learning behaviour (e.g. between two
systems),
* mining data from A/B tests,
* application of discovered patterns for personalization and adaptation,
* description of applications, and
* description of case studies and experiences.

The workshop invites papers reporting experiences, case studies, surveys,
reflections and comparisons. The submission format is on of the following: a
full paper of up to 10 pages, a short paper of up to 5 pages, or an abstract
for a poster of up to 3 pages.
