Abstract Selection and Presentation

Conference Sessions

The conference features a series of engaging presentations, panel discussions, interactive workshops, and an AI innovation showcase, all led by educators, researchers, and technology experts at the cutting edge of digital learning.

Oral Presentation Sessions

Each oral presentation session is organised as a symposium with a Chairperson, presentations on a common topic of interest, and one symposium discussant. Presenters explore research from multiple perspectives, providing a coherent set of papers for discussion. Each presenter is allotted 10 minutes for their presentation, followed by 10 minutes for the discussant and 20 minutes for open discussion. This format encourages substantive scholarly dialogue and peer engagement around a focused theme.

• 4 presentations per session
• Chairperson and Discussant
• 10 minutes per presenter + 20 minutes open discussion
   

Interactive Poster Sessions

Dedicated poster sessions are scheduled throughout the conference programme. Each poster is a graphic presentation of a research study displayed on an A0 board in portrait format. Authors deliver a one-minute oral summary to an assembled audience, after which an in-depth discussion takes place around the poster displays. Poster sessions foster richer, one-on-one interaction and are ideal for early-stage research and visual storytelling of findings.

• A0 portrait format (0.841m × 1.189m)
• 1-minute oral summary per poster followed by in-depth discussion
• 90-minute sessions

Workshop sessions

Workshops and demonstrations enable presenters to display, explain, and familiarise participants with an innovative approach, a teaching or research tool, or a learning sequence relevant to e-learning practice. The emphasis is on hands-on engagement rather than critique of completed research. Workshop conveners are expected to allocate adequate time for reflective discussion, and participants are encouraged to share experiences with comparable tools or innovations at the close of the session.

• Hands-on, learning by doing
• Brief presentation of completed research permitted
• 90-minute sessions

AI Innovation Showcase

In alignment with this year’s conference theme, the AI Innovation Showcase is a dedicated session for demonstrating live AI-powered tools, platforms, and applications in educational contexts. Presenters from academia, industry, and edtech organisations are invited to exhibit working solutions that advance inclusion, equity, or ethical practice in digital learning. This session bridges the gap between research and real-world implementation, offering attendees direct exposure to cutting-edge technologies reshaping the future of learning.

• Live demonstrations of AI-powered tools and platforms
• 15-minute showcase + open Q&A per presenter
• Open to academia, industry, and edtech organisations
