Learning today is moving more and more away from the ‘one size fits all’ principle and towards individual, intelligent forms of learning. We have long known that everyone learns differently, everyone has a different existing knowledge base and everyone has different needs when it comes to learning new skills. New AI-driven technologies are fast becoming a part of our everyday lives.

How can we ‘intelligently’ (and in a manner that is as personalised as possible) use these technologies in ILIAS in order to increase both learning effectiveness and speed? How can we create individual learning experiences within group settings? Tell us about solutions that use adaptive learning, development plans, learning journeys, intelligent analyses and assessments, and that take their first steps using AI.

Show us how you have implemented intelligent scenarios and tasks. Show us too, how new plugins and the core of ILIAS can be sustainably (further) developed in order to deal with current challenges and to bring ILIAS intelligently into the future. How can we better strengthen ILIAS’s foundations? How can we permanently and long term attract more people into becoming involved in the development of ILIAS?

The topic ‘ILIAS in Green & Green in ILIAS’ supports the goal of raising awareness of the issues of 'carbon neutrality' and ‘sustainability' in education and training among the users of ILIAS.

Two aspects are especially important to us. The first is ‘the green operation of ILIAS’ and the second ‘green content in ILIAS’. All societies, businesses, schools and institutes of further education are invited to report on their experiences and deliberations regarding these two key aspects.

We hope to gain new insights into green sustainability in and around ILIAS by hearing about real-world examples. Are you maybe already using green electricity to power your server? Have you been able to reduce travel and/or printing costs due to the increased switch from face-to-face to online training that has taken place over the last few years? How do you emphasise reusability when producing learning content and courses?  Do you already participate in the OER initiative, making your learning content available to others?

We look forward to creative, green ILIAS ideas!

The topic ‘Forward Thinking’ deals with future-orientated thought and action, for example in the areas of teaching, research, training management and further education.

The focus here is on the innovative and sustainable transfer of knowledge. This includes scenarios that are based on collaboration and networking using ILIAS (and beyond), as well as informal and lifelong learning, for example micro-credentials. Show us your innovative learning processes and concepts for the future.

An awareness of how important time and resources are, needs to be created. How can members of staff become experts in their fields and pass on their knowledge, thereby ensuring the sustainable transfer of knowledge within their institution? The aim is also to show that learning is more effective when it is fun and enjoyable, for which gamification, among other things, can be used.

This is the place where ILIAS users can show and tell us about the things they have always wanted to. These could be new, innovative tools, success stories, prototypes, new trends or research papers.

Share your knowledge and ideas with the community, inspire us and get discussions going.

We are ready to be surprised!
