EduCUI: The First International Workshop for Conversational User Interfaces in Education

This workshop aims to connect the Conversational User Interfaces (CUI) and the learning sciences and educational technologies (EduTech) communities through discussion of their shared view of the future of conversational user interfaces in educational contexts. The workshop aims to encourage creative consideration of the trade-offs in design and cross-disciplinary expertise needed for designing CUIs for education. Considerations of these design opportunities and limitations will be explored through a design activity and performance activity, by which attendees will get to know each other's areas of expertise and networks of resources. The half-day workshop will facilitate greater communication and collaboration between these communities in a popular and socially important research area.
