[Iefac.list] ANNSIM'23 - SimEd Track - Call for Papers

[Ashour, Omar]

Dear Colleagues,

Please see the *call for papers* below. If you are doing research related
to Simulation Education and Simulation-Based Learning (SimEd), please
consider submitting your work to the ANNSIM'23 Conference that will be held
in the greater Toronto area (Canada) from May 23 – 26, 2023.



*Call for Papers: ANNSIM 2023, SimEd Track*

We would like to invite you to submit a paper to the *Simulation Education
and Simulation-Based Learning (SimED)* track of the Annual Simulation
conference (ANNSIM'23), which will be held in the greater Toronto area
(Canada) from May 23 – 26, 2023. ANNSIM is the merger of the Spring and
Summer simulation conferences, and in line with past conferences, its
papers have been published by IEEE and ACM. The full description of the
SimEd track is provided below along with the submission deadlines. For more
information, please visit the conference website at https://scs.org/annsim/.




*Important Dates:*

January 8, 2023: Paper submission (Link to submission system
<https://www.softconf.com/sim/ANNSIM23/>)

March 7, 2023: Decision notification

March 30: Camera-ready version



The SimEd track is seeking submissions for papers, panels, and workshops
related to the following two areas:



1. *Simulation Education:* This area focuses on teaching and learning
simulation in engineering, sciences, social sciences, or any other
discipline where simulation techniques are used. We welcome submissions
that discuss and share pedagogical models, best practices, lessons learned,
course projects, tools, case studies, and other resources for training the
next generation of simulation experts.



2. *Simulation-Based Learning (SBL): *SBL refers to the use of simulation
models and tools to enrich teaching and learning. SBL offers a wide range
of opportunities for experiential learning and to practice critical
thinking, problem-solving, and decision-making. Research shows that SBL is
among the most effective ways to learn complex skills across different
domains as it enables knowledge application in a virtual yet realistic
environment.  Moreover, SBL educational experiences can be made available
to geographically dispersed students in support of remote and online
learning. All learning situations are of interest (formal/informal,
in-person/distance learning, K-12, Higher Education, Professional Training,
Continuing Education, etc.)



Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

· Implementation and assessment of SBL in courses from any domain
(engineering, sciences, social sciences, etc.)

· Problem-/project-based, experiential, and collaborative learning via SBL

· Skill development and workforce training via SBL

· SBL in online, in-person, and blended learning models

· Immersive simulated learning environments (augmented, virtual, and mixed
reality, immersive game-based learning)

· Comparative studies on the effectiveness of SBL vs other teaching and
learning methods

· Learning analytics in SBL



If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact us.
