Call for Papers - 4th Spanish Conference in Information Retrieval: Teaching IR Track

- CERI 2016 -

14-16 June 2016 – Granada, Spain

URL: http://www.ugr.es/~ceri16/

Motivation
Information Retrieval (IR) is a research area that has generated a great deal of interest over the years, and is now has a high profile in the media etc. The research community has addressed many different problems that have arisen; disseminating new advances in knowledge through the usual scientific channels i.e. journals and conferences. Thus impact of work done is publically available to any interested party.

However, to maintain interest in the field, the community needs to pass this knowledge on to the next generation of researchers, or even to those whose main aim is just to find information using IR systems. Therefore teaching IR to students is a key way of enticing new people into the community, and to enthuse them with the many problems yet to be solved. For computer science students, IR is a useful and high profile application to reinforce knowledge acquired in programming, data structures, user interface design etc. For library and information science students, searching operationally is a key skill, and development in the field are key to their future professional development. Postgraduate research students who work in this area also need to know the fundamental aspects of the subject, as they may be building new solutions for them.

Therefore as important as research is to IR, the community can improve the profile of the subject by creating a common space where IR lecturers and researchers can share their experiences and opinions in the field of IR teaching. The aim of the track is to provide this common space. The focus of the track is broad, and submissions at any of the educational levels (primary, secondary and tertiary) are welcomed.
