SUBMISSION DEADLINE: 13 JUNE 2017, 23:59 UTC/GMT


Theme: Celebrating Achievements in Education and Technology

We are excited to announce that the education program is back at 
SIGGRAPH Asia 2017. The Symposium on Education invites people from both 
academia and the industry to present innovative research, methods and 
developments related to the teaching of computer graphics and 
interactive techniques and application of computer graphics and 
interactive techniques in all areas of learning. This year’s main 
conference theme is “The Celebration of Life and Technology”. We view 
education as a natural part of the lifelong learning process. We wish to 
support the evolving integration of art and technology embraced by 
educators. As an international gathering of industry professionals and 
academics, the Symposium on Education will present perspectives that 
appeal to a wide spectrum of interests. We will share educational 
strategies adopted in both industry and academia to make the learning 
process more satisfying, productive, and meaningful.

The symposium is seeking submissions for:

     Education Papers: Peer-reviewed academic papers that presenting 
research and case studies relevant to the symposium.
     Education Talks: Short presentations covering newly developed 
works, ideas and projects still in development stage.
     Education Workshops: 1.5 or 3-hour hands-on courses with an 
emphasis on interaction and exchange of information among participants 
on a topic relevant to educators and/or students. Workshops could be a 
course with hands-on activities and/or short lectures with discussions. 
The subject of submissions should focus on knowledge and activities that 
educators and students can apply to their teaching and learning in 
Computer Graphics, Interactive Technology, Animation, Digital Art, Video 
Games, VFX and other related fields, and should generally not be about 
using specific software applications or hardware systems.

Education Papers and Education Talks should build upon previous 
research, reference related works, and include an evidence based 
discussion on the educational benefits.

Submissions related to academic curricula should have discussions beyond 
introduction of a specific program. Please include a brief explanation 
on how the program fits within the educational system of your 
country/region to facilitate better understanding by an international 
audience. We are seeking works that would benefit other educators.

Promotions of commercial products or school programs should be presented 
in the Exhibition program.

Accepted works must be presented at the Symposium on Education of the 
SIGGRAPH Asia 2017 Bangkok conference. They will be documented in the 
SIGGRAPH Asia 2017 website and distributed through the ACM Digital 
Library. Additionally, accepted works will be given preferred 
consideration for inclusion in CGEMS Open Access Refereed site.

Expanded versions of selected papers and talk abstracts might be 
considered for publication at prominent international journals, 
Computers & Graphics, IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications (IEEE 
CG&A) and Transactions on Edutainment.

Workshop holders are expected to arrange hardware and software required 
for the workshop for themselves.

Please contact the SIGGRAPH Asia 2017 Symposium on Education Chair  if 
you would like to consider other presentation formats.

We encourage submissions in educational research in the scope of 
SIGGRAPH conference, including Computer Graphics, Interactive 
Techniques, CG Animation, Video Games, VFX, VR/AR:

     Teaching of these areas
