Symposium

2-4 September 2026

Objectives

The International Symposium on Computers in Education (SIIE) provides an international forum for presenting and discussing the latest advances in research on learning technologies and their practical application in educational processes. It also aims to unite researchers, developers, institutional representatives, and teachers to share views, knowledge, and experiences.

The 26th edition of the Symposium will focus on Artificial Intelligence application in education, specially relevant in our current society in different contexts. This does not mean to dismiss other interesting topics such as systems, platforms, pedagogies, and practice-based education in e-learning and b-learning, including simulators, augmented reality systems, virtual reality systems, and remote labs.

This edition of the SIIE is held at the Escuela Politécnica Superior de Zamora (Spain)

Contributions

The Symposium calls for quality contributions presenting original work in Educational Informatics related to the topics of interest. Contributions can be written in Spanish, Portuguese or English. The title and abstract must also be written in English. The presentation of papers at the symposium may be in Spanish, Portuguese or English.

All contributions must be submitted as PDF files and conform to the official IEEE Proceedings Formatting Instructions (http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html). Regular contributions will be limited to a maximum of 6 pages.

Submissions should be made via the EasyChair platform through the following link (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=siie2026).

Accepted papers will be distributed to participants prior to the symposium and a summary will be published in a book of abstracts. Papers submitted and presented will be included in an edition of post-proceedings

The conference proceedings will be submitted for inclusion to the IEEE Xplore Digital Library®. Papers to be submitted for inclusion to the IEEE Xplore Digital Library® must be written in English.

At the end of the symposium, the X Edition of the "Antonio Vaquero" award will be presented to the best paper of the SIIE 2024.

The best articles will also be selected for publication in extended versions in various journals. Special issues are currently confirmed in:

Special sessions

In addition to the regular sessions, the following special sessions will take place:

  • A doctoral consortium for the presentation of preliminary results by doctoral students in their research in the field of educational informatics.
  • Session on European projects.

Contributions to the special sessions should be submitted as PDF files and adhere to the official IEEE proceedings format guidelines. Contributions to the special sessions for the doctoral consortium should be a minimum of 2 pages and a maximum of 6 pages and for European projects a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 4 pages.

Submissions to the special sessions should also be made through the EasyChair platform using the following link (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=siie2026).
