The First Australasian Conference on Computer Science Education will be held in Sydney, Australia, on July 3-5 1996. The conference solicits submissions which describe innovations in teaching computer science, information systems, and information technology, at all post-secondary levels.
Typical subjects include
These innovations may be in the context of formal courses or self-directed learning; they may involve introductory programming, service courses, specialist undergraduate or even postgraduate topics.
The ACM SIGCSE conference provides a model for the style of paper, and ACM recognition is being sought for this event. Also we particularly welcome work directed at issues of local importance (eg quality management in teaching, teaching for indigenous people, attracting and retaining female students, articulation between vocational and university education). The programme committee will select the papers to appear, based on their potential to enhance learning outcomes in CS, IS and IT courses at universities in the Australasian region.
Submissions are limited to 10 pages. We are seeking to arrange publication of the proceedings.
Submission deadline is April 1 1996.
We prefer electronic submissions, by using anonymous ftp to deposit a postscript file in the directory
