Grid - is a powerful computing architecture dedicated to enhance

e-learning, e-Science, etc. This powerful computing architecture integrates different emerging technologies such as: agent-based systems, hypermedia techniques, semantic web in peer to peer networks.

The ITS'04 "Learning GRID" workshop aims to collect experience on the

effective use of technology-enhanced learning through the design, implementation and validation of a pedagogy-driven, service-oriented software architecture based on GRID technologies for supporting ubiquitous, collaborative, experiential-based, contextualised and personalised learning

The workshop is inspired by an EU Integrated Project recently approved:

ELEGI ( http://www.cordis.lu/ist/directorate_e/telearn/fp6_elegi.htm ) and has among its main proposers some key leaders active within the Network of Excellence LeG-WG and the "GRID for learning" communities in the South Pacific and North America.

TOPICS Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to: Human learning service requirements and service provision based on GRID:

teaching services, training services, abstracting and generalizing interoperable mechanisms, negotiating, qualifying then fusing Semantic descriptions.

Organisational Learning, Ubiquitous learning services Learning as a side effect of Interaction, Serendipitous Learning Community learning by jointly constructing Ontologies, Constructivist

learning, Social Learning

GRID Learning services: Granularity, composition, dynamic generation, learning services Learning Agents (human and artificial)

Enhanced presence on Grid: Rationality, Motivation and Emotions enabling Learning e-Qualification, QoS Provision, Adaptive QoS

Applications to (not limited):

• Virtual Scientific Experiments
• Virtual Labs
• E-Training (Medicine, Aeronautics,.)
• Learning Environments for Accountancy and Business Finance
• Learning Environments for Mechanical Engineering

FORMAT -Paper submission guidelines:

http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/authors/uaaiauth.asp

-Panel discussion: the workshop session will end with a 60-minute panel

discussion on selected topics from the paper presentations.

Workshop Proceedings: The papers from all the sessions of the GLS'04

workshop will be printed in one-volume proceedings. We will later edit a selection of the papers in a Special Issue on Learning GRID Services, to appear in the Applied Artificial Intelligence Journal, Vienna, Austria http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/titles/08839514.asp

TARGET AUDIENCE senior scientists already committed to research in GRID Learning

Services (1/3); of

scientists novice in the specific area, but interested in understanding

the concepts and the state of the art in the domain (1/3) and of

students curious about potential links to their own ongoing PhD research

and future opportunities of projects and jobs (1/3).

EVIDENCE OF INTEREST & RELATED EVENTS Previous published work in the field can be found at the British

Computer Society Web site ; ( http://ewic.bcs.org/categories/gridcomputing.htm )emerging from the 3 LEGE WG workshops running in Europe since 2002 .

The 4th International LEGE-WG Workshop: Towards a European Learning Grid

Infrastructure will occur on April 27-28, 2004 in Stuttgart, Germany, http://www.lege-wg.org/Activity/Legeworkshop4 )
