Aims

The aim of this workshop is to serve as a forum to bring together researchers from the interdisciplinary arena that encompasses psychology, education, computer science, and artificial intelligence to exchange ideas, frameworks, methods, and tools relating to affect and learning. The last two years has been ripe with theory and applications within the scope of affect and learning.  These advances in affect and learning are accompanied by a new set of challenges. By providing a framework to discuss and evaluate novel research we hope to leverage recent advances to speed-up future research in this area. By uniting prominent researchers with graduate students we hope to fortify young researchers with the state of the art knowledge in this area and inspire them to the focus on the main challenges that are hindrances to major progress. In this manner we expect the workshop to be a catalyst to advance research in this area.
