MODELS 2014: Call for Papers Educators' Symposium

  =97-> CFP - Call for Papers Educators=92 Symposium at MODELS 2014  <=97-

MODELS 2014  - ACM/IEEE 17th International Conference  on
      Model-Driven Engineering Languages & Systems

Sept. 28th - Oct. 3rd, 2014 =96 Valencia, Spain

Submission Deadline: July 11, 2014

-------------------------------------------------------------

The Educators' Symposium at MODELS 2014 addresses the challenges,
techniques and best practices involved in teaching modeling
technologies to software engineers at universities and software
industries. Experience in teaching methods including presence
courses, blended and distance learning and especially e-learning,
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) and game-based approaches
are in demand. The New York Times confirmed the trend to
e-learning approaches by naming 2012 The Year of the MOOC.

Papers on all topics and ways related to the teaching of modeling
including analysis, design as well as model transformation
activities are of interest to the symposium. We ask for
contributions related but not limited to the following issues:

   *   How do we teach modeling (analysis and design) in due
       consideration of cognitive aspects?
   *   How can we motivate computer science students to apply
       model-based or model-driven software development techniques
       in their development projects?
   *   What are useful online tools and e-learning concepts
       in teaching modeling?
   *   Are e-learning approaches suited at all due to the ordinary
       =93big solution space=94 of a modeling task?
   *   Are there experiences with/examples of game-based learning
       approaches and/or Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs)?
   *   What is the best way for teaching modeling: before, after
       or intertwined with OO programming
   *   Should we begin to teach modeling using a modeling tool or
       by pencil and paper?
   *   In the students' first software project covering the whole
       software life cycle: should we require a more rigid or an
       agile software development process?
   *   How can we measure the quality of students' software
       models?

All papers (short papers 4 pages, long papers 8 pages ) of the
10th Educators' Symposium @ MODELS 2014 will be published in CEUR
(http://ceur-ws.org/).

Submission Deadline: July 11, 2014
