Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Research in the field of learner–computer interaction (LCI) involves the analysis, implementation, and utilization of interactive technologies to enhance and boost knowledge acquisition. Indeed, e-learning is a multifaceted process that embodies several complex issues, such as human, software, information, and interaction. The field of LCI provides indispensable tools for building an educational environment which can be tailored to learners’ needs, preferences, and interests. This environment has to offer an adaptive and personalized learning experience to students in order to further modernize the educational process.
LCI is the common research ground for scientists of different fields, such as educational software and technology, human–machine communication, pedagogical sciences, and psychology.
LCI is the medium to develop novel and more sophisticated learning environments as well as to further support intelligent tutoring systems, enabling learning in a meaningful and effective way using a variety of computing technologies, and aiming to replicate the demonstrated benefits of one-to-one, personalized tutoring.
Despite the several research efforts that have been presented, there is fertile ground for more research in the field.
This Special Issue welcomes original research papers as well as review articles and short communications in the aforementioned area. Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:
- Learner–computer interaction;
- Intelligent user interfaces;
- Adaptive user interfaces;
- Tangible interaction;
- Intelligent tutoring systems;
- Collaborative and group learning, communities of practice, and social networks;
- Gamification, educational games, simulation-based learning, and serious games;
- Adaptive educational hypermedia systems;
- Educational robotics;
- Human in the loop, understanding human learning on the web in a virtual (digital) world;
- Personalized and adaptive learning environments;
- Instructional design principles or design patterns for educational environments.
