Call for papers
Authors are invited to submit original papers on research results or novel applications of ICT in education and e-Learning. A list of indicative topics is available at the Conference website. The Conference accepts the following types of papers:
Full papers: These include mainly accomplished original research results. Full papers should be written following the Conference submission template and may have up to eight (8) pages maximum.
Short papers: These typically report on work in progress, new developments, ongoing projects or ongoing work of PhD students. Short papers should be written following the Conference submission template and may have up to four (4) pages maximum.
Poster paper: These accompany a poster and report on a work appropriate for poster presentation (for example, a new software/hardware product, a design proposal, a not yet evaluated ICT-based approach, etc.). Poster papers are of the ‘short papers’ format (up to four (4) pages maximum).
 - Papers of all the above types are submitted to the Conference through the easychair system and will be reviewed by at least 2 reviewers. All accepted papers will be included in the Conference proceedings. Paper accpetance/rejection depends on their scientific quality and innovative content.
Doctoral Consortium Paper: Presents the ongoing work of a PhD project. The objective is for PhD students to present their ongoing work and get valuable feedback from expert members of the community. Especially welcome are PhDs in their early years (up to 3rd) so that they benefit the most from expert reviews. Doctoral consortium papers are of the ‘short papers’ format (up to four (4) pages maximum). These papers will not be included in the Conference proceedings and no conference fees are paid by PhD students presenting.
A “Best Paper Award” and a “Best Student Paper Award” will be given to the author(s) of a full paper presented at the conference, selected by the Coordinating Committee of the Conference based on the best combined marks of paper reviewing, assessed by the Program Committee.
The awards will be announced at the conference closing session.
Each author of an awarded paper, and co-authors if any, will be entitled to:
- An official award certificate.
- The announcement of their achievement on a special conference webpage.
- The invitation for an extended and revised version publication in a book or a journal.
- A one year free membership of HICICTE (www.etpe.eu).
- A voucher for a free registration fee in the next HICICTE Conference.
- The Conference languages are Greek and English.
- Each author could appear in four (4) at most papers (full or short).
- Each accepted paper (full or short) should be accompanied by one author registration before June, 15, 2018, in order to be included in the conference proceedings. The same registration cannot accompany more than one paper. Therefore, authors appearing in more than one paper should take care to register (the same or different author) as many times as their papers, indicating also which registration accompanies which paper id.
- The paper page limits (8 for full papers, 4 for short papers) refer to the complete content of the paper (that is, tables, figures, list of reference, etc. are all included).
- The authors are requested to carefully apply the APA style specifications for referencing others’ work both in the body and in the reference list at the end of their papers. Each entry in the reference list should appear at least once in the body of the manuscript. Also, the reference list should be alphabetically sorted. For more details the authors should review the reference list of the submission template and also find advice in relevant online APA tutorials (for example, ‘The Basics of APA style’)
- All conference papers will be submitted through the Easychair Conference submission online system (see further below) and will be critically reviewed by at least two reviewers. Acceptance/rejection of the submitted papers strongly depends on their scientific quality (innovative work not presented in another journal/conference) and format presentation (adhering to the Conference template).
Full papers: 15 minutes (12 min author presentation + 3 min question answering).
Short papers: 15 minutes (12 min author presentation + 3 min question answering).
Equipment: All conference rooms will be equipped with computer, internet connection and necessary projection hardware. Presenters should bring their presentations in digital format, preferably on a flash stick ready to be downloaded to the presentation computer.

Co-ordinator: Anna Mavroudi - Researcher at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Richard Glassey - KTH Royal Intitute of Technology
"In the context of the 11th Pan-Hellenic and International Conference “ICT in Education” organised by the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and the University of Macedonia in Thessaloniki from 19 October until 21 October a special session will take place in the topic “Tutors as Designers of Technology Enhanced Learning”. There is a strong need to contribute to the ongoing debate on the topic (Kali, McKenney, & Sagy, 2015). The aim of this special session is to bring together researchers, tutors, tutor trainers and other practitioners, as well as educational policymakers to exchange experiences, ideas and best practices. Different kinds of contributions that extend the existing knowledge on the topic are welcomed: empirical studies, systematic reviews, policy papers, and theoretical papers that provide solid conceptual foundations. Also, the term 'tutors' is meant to be used herein as an inclusive term that encompasses designers of TEL in one (or a combination of) setting(s): faculty members, school teachers, adult trainers etc. This special session covers a wide range of different aspects on the topic, which involve (but are not limited to) the following: • Faculty members as designers of TEL • Teachers as designers of TEL in school education • Tutors as designers of TEL in distance education • Considerations for supporting tutors as designers of TEL • Methodologies or (software) tools that enable tutors as designers of TEL • Conceptual frameworks for tutor design work • Policy recommendations for enabling tutors as designers of TEL • Communities of tutors engaging in design of TEL The submission of papers is done via the Easychair System (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=hcicte2018 ) and at the same time, by e-mail to Anna Mavroudi (amav@kth.se), Olga Viberg (oviberg@kth.se), Björn Hedin (bjornh@kth.se), or Olle Bälter( ob1@kth.se) by 30/05/2018. Reference: Kali, Y., McKenney, S., & Sagy, O. (2015). Teachers as designers of technology enhanced learning. Instructional Science, 43(2), 173-179."
Round Tables: A session organized as a ‘discussion panel’. The coordinator first submits a proposal describing and documenting the discussion topic and its importance. If the proposal is accepted, the coordinator invites at least 4 speakers. During the session the speakers first make short introductions on the discussion topic (for example, 5 or 7 minutes each) and then the discussion goes on with the audience also participating. A ‘Round table’ could report conclusions that could be included in the Conference proceedings.

Tutorial:: A session of ‘tutorial’ format, with specific learning objectives for the participants (for example, to learn how a software/hardware tool operates). The coordinator submits a proposal and –if accepted- those interested should be register in order to participate, paying also the necessary fee (if any). A tutorial is not included in Conference proceedings.

Workshop:a session promoting interaction between presenters and audience. The coordinator submits a proposal and –if accepted- invites at least four (4) presenters. Those presenting should submit papers of ‘short’ format (up to four (4) pages maximum) which will be critically reviewed (accepted or rejected). If accepted they will be included in the Conference proceedings. The objective of a Workshop session is to bring together various research and development groups, to serve as a forum for establishing new collaborations, to attract both research results and work in progress, and to define main enablers and future challenges within a specific research domain. The coordinator is responsible for arranging the paper presentations, the time allocated to presenters and to discussants, the type of interaction, etc. A ‘Workshop’ may also report conclusions which could be included in the Conference proceedings.
