Interactivity and high-quality didactic designs support successful learning processes. We are looking for contributions that show concrete examples of interactive learning processes having been put into practice in ILIAS. Contributions covering measurable learning effects or practical implementation methods are particularly welcome.

Examples:

Present your concepts, practical use-case examples, or tools in ILIAS that enagage learners and support long-lasting learning.

Keywords:
learning format, gamification, interactive learning, adaptivity

…more than just grey blocks

Good design makes things more accessible, increases motivation and supports self-directed learning. We are looking for contributions which look at the many design options and possibilites in ILIAS.

Examples:

Show us how well thought-out interfaces support learning processes.

Keywords:
Usability, accessibility, visual platform design, motivation, user experience

…more than the basis

Extending learning platforms can enrich them – as long as the extensions are sensibly integrated. We are looking for contributions on scenarios that were made possible thanks to plugins, as well as contributions on the development and maintenance of such extensions.

Showcases or practical reports are particularly welcome, ideally with open source solutions.

Examples:

Keywords:
Plugins, Extensions, Components, Useage Scenarios, Development, Patterns, Learning Analytics

…more than solo

The ILIAS community is powered by the active participation of its members in working groups (AG) and special interest groups (SIG). We are looking for contributions on formats, concepts and tools, that promote the exchange of ideas, peer learning and community building.

Examples:

Tell us about your experiences, lessons learned or sustainability strategies.

Keywords:
Networking, Communication & Collaboration, SIGs, AGs

…more than just stand-alone solutions

Trouble-free interfaces and open standards promote efficiency and innovation. We are looking for contributions on intergration strategies, migration processes and open formats such as LTI, xAPI, SCORM and REST. Practical recommendations for implementing and ensuring data quality are especially welcome.

Examples:

Describe implementation, challenges and usefulness for business and education.

Keywords:
Interoperability, standards, learning activities, external tools, compatibility

…more than an AI trend

Artificial intelligence opens up new possibilites... but it is is crucial that it is used in a thoughtful and responsible manner. We are looking for reports on your experiences, scenarios and best practices relating to AI. Particularly welcome are contributions looking at concrete results as well as tips on implementing AI responsibly.

Examples:

Show your AI content oder tell us about barriers and stumbling blocks that you have encountered when using AI.

Keywords:
Learning support, AI use, infrastructure, development, implementation

…more than just an exam machine

Digital exams should be valid, fair and conducive to learning. We are looking for contributions on innovative as well as tried and tested exam formats and feedback processes. Especially welcome are practical recommendations regarding scalability and security.

Examples:

Show your courses, tests and platforms and tell use about the effort involved and how your approach was received.

Keywords:
E-exams, feedback, test designs, examination tools

...more than a safety net

Data protection, digital sovereignty and cyber security are the foundation of trustworthy online services. We are looking for contributions on data minimisation measures, your experiences with cyber attacks, and legal documents in ILIAS. Examples from everyday university/business life and practical checklists and assistance are particularly welcome.

Examples:

Tell us about measures taken, experiences and possible trade-offs between functionality and protection.

Keywords:
Data protection, security measures, cyber security, safety & security awareness
