The Society for Learning Analytics research is pleased to announce that the CFP for the 5th International Conference on Learning Analytics & Knowledge “Scaling Up: Big Data to Big Impact” is now open. The conference will take place March 16-20, 2015 at Marist College in Poughkeepsie, NY.

As we move forward to our 5th annual conference, the theme for LAK’15 shifts the focus from data to impact, reinforcing the notion that Learning Analytics is on the cusp of scalability and continues to grow in importance in education and learning. We invite papers that address the impact of learning analytics and especially encourage submissions that demonstrate how the work is relevant to improving learning for people of all ages, leverages the technologies available to today’s learners, and is scalable within the many places where learning occurs. To accomplish these goals, we seek theoretically motivated papers that utilize analytics to provide direction for understanding and impacting learning.

For details on submitting conference papers please see the full Call for Papers and Author Instructions online. The deadline for submissions is October 14, 2014.
