CIC at (online) international conferences

Posted on

Research is fuelled by academics connecting through high quality, peer reviewed conferences — all of which had to shift online this year due to the pandemic. CIC was out in force, albeit into the small hours on some occasions!…

For CIC, the International Conference on Learning Analytics is a primary venue — and notably, No.6 and the only conference in Google Scholar’s impact rankings for Educational Technology. As usual, CIC had a strong presence with our academics and students contributing papers, workshops and the Doctoral Consortium.
