                     CALL FOR TUTORIAL PROPOSALS
   THE WORLD CONFERENCE ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN EDUCATION (AI-ED 95)

The Program Committee of the 7th World Conference of Artificial
Intelligence in Education (AI-ED 95) invites proposals for the
Tutorial Program of the conference.  The conference is being held in
Washington DC, USA, 16th-19th August 1995.  Tutorials will be one-half
day in duration, and will be held on Wednesday, 16th August.


		       Submission Requirements

We need two kinds of information in proposals: information that
will be used for selecting proposals and information that will
appear in the tutorial description brochure.  So each proposal should
contain the following:
  - Goal of the tutorial;
  - Detailed outline, possibly augmented with sample materials;
  - Tutorial description: a short paragraph summarizing the tutorial
    outline;
  - Prerequisite knowledge: what knowledge is assumed.

Please also submit the following information about the 
presenters:
  - Name, mailing address, phone number, email address;
  - Background in the tutorial area, including a list of 
    publications;
  - Any available examples of work in the area (ideally, a 
    published tutorial-level article on the subject);
  - Evidence of teaching experience (courses taught or 
    references);
  - Evidence of scholarship in artificial intelligence in
    education

The proposal should be presented in the form of a 200-word abstract, a
1-page topical outline of the content, and a description of the
proposers and their qualifications relating to the tutorial content.

Each tutorial may be offered by an individual, or by a team
of presenters.

Those submitting a proposal should keep in mind that tutorials are
intended to provide an overview of a field or practical training in an
area; they should present reasonably well agreed upon information in a
balanced way. Tutorials should not be used to advocate a single avenue
of research, nor should they promote a product.  Tutorial presenters
and attendees should both plan to register for the conference.

Submission Deadline

Proposals must be received by January 6th, 1995.

Decisions about the tutorial program will be made by 
January 22nd, 1995.

Speakers should be prepared to submit completed course 
materials by July 1, 1995.

Electronic submissions are encouraged.  Please
address questions regarding submissions to the Tutorial Chair:
