Theme: Extending the Boundaries of Software Engineering Education and 
Training

Goal
====
Software engineering is a maturing discipline that is increasingly 
important
in a technology enabled connected world. The changes in this new century 
are
probing the boundaries of software engineering education and training. 
These
changes vary from an ever-increasing rate of technology adoption to the
online education popularity. It is often claimed new technologies can help
educators to make a difference in software engineering teaching and 
learning.
Others claim e-learning and its various delivery formats may even dominate
education and training in the near future.

Therefore, educating and training tomorrow's software engineers represent
ongoing challenges. For instance, the promotion of distance learning in 
many
topics of software engineering -- such as requirements engineering, 
software
design, modular programming, software testing and software project
management -- remains challenging and requires further development.
There are many other challenges as the frontiers of software engineering
education and training are being extended in many directions. In this 
context,
in this year's ICSE track on Software Engineering Education and Training 
(SEET),
our goal is to explore how to extend the boundaries of how educators, 
trainers,
students and professional software engineers exchange and acquire software
engineering knowledge and skills.

Scope and Topics of Interest
========================
The ICSE 2014 SEET Track is looking for contributions that address new
challenges and best practices in software engineering and training. 
While we
welcome submissions on all topics related to software engineering education
and training, we are particularly interested in submissions exploring 
recent
trends in education and training. A few examples of such trends include the
innovative use of social media for knowledge management and acquisition,
the widespread adoption of mobile devices, and the online education
movement.  A key concern is how these and other exciting developments
will or may play a role in traditional software engineering education and
training programs. Innovative approaches to other long-term challenges
are also welcome.

The track is intended to cover several topics, including (but not 
limited to):
- new best practices for SEET
- innovative curriculum or course formats
- experiences with the ACM/IEEE Curriculum 2013
- impact of online education movement on SE curricula
- innovative methods for SEET in online courses
- learnable programming
- integration of software engineering research into teaching and training
- blending software engineering and other disciplines, such as music, art
and psychology
- continuing education in the face of rapid technological change
- education and training paradigms of the new century, such as cloud
computing or global software development
- ensuring graduated students meet new industry needs through the
understanding of development practices for different environments
- innovative use of social media for knowledge management
- exploring the widespread adoption of mobile devices for SEET
- different experiences and needs in developing countries

Format and Submissions
=====================
All papers must conform to the ICSE 2014 formatting and submission 
instructions.
We solicit high-quality submissions for this track in the following 
categories:

- Full papers, up to 10 pages, documenting results and findings, where 
the research
    presented has followed established research methods;
- Short papers, up to 4 pages, reporting novel ideas were not fully 
evaluated yet;
- Case study papers, up to 8 pages, reporting on novel courses, tools, 
or delivery
    formats, possibly related to the ACM/IEEE Curriculum 2013
- Panel session proposals, up to 4 pages, which describe the topic to be 
discussed
    and include arguments for the topic relevance, and propose the panel 
membership.

Submissions will be evaluated on the basis of originality, significance 
of contribution,
applicability, validation, relation to the goals listed above, 
discussion of related work,
and quality of presentation. Additional information available at the 
track website.
