Submission and Review

Authors will be asked to indicate their preferred contribution type when submitting their abstract or proposal.

All submissions will undergo review by the Conference Scientific Committee. Submissions will be considered based on:

• Relevance to the Conference theme and subthemes;

• Originality and quality;

• Clarity of the proposed contribution;

• Significance and potential contribution to the field;

• Relevance to the international open, distance, flexible, and technology-enabled education community; and

• Appropriateness for the proposed contribution format.

Indicating a preferred contribution type does not guarantee acceptance in that format. The Committee may recommend a different contribution type where this is considered more appropriate to the content of the submission or the overall Conference program.

Authors will be notified of the outcome of their submission according to the Conference timeline through the registered email address.
