I. Introduction
ITS2022 (https://iis-international.org/its2022-bucharest-romania/) is the upcoming Conference of the series of Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) Conferences on Computer and Cognitive Sciences, Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning in Tutoring the Education. It will be held in Bucharest, Romania, in June/July 2022 and will be hosted by University Politehnica of Bucharest. The theme of the conference is “NEW CHALLENGES FOR ITS DURING AND AFTER COVID”.
The Intelligent Tutoring Systems conference attracts researchers and academics, the industry and the end-users since 1988. It started out as an enthusiastic project by Professor Claude Frasson and in 2018 it celebrated its 30th anniversary at its birthplace in Montreal.
The ITS conference series enables, supports and enhances human learning, through an interdisciplinary research approach on Intelligent Systems. By linking together the study of the use of advanced computer technologies and various other themes, such as education, tutoring and etc, the ITS conference series builds the foundation for the evaluation of the use of Intelligent Systems in education, modeling innovative applications of technologies and the adaptation of systems to specific groups of learners.
We want to emphasize the strong link we have established with another prestigious conference, the 22th IEEE International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies (ICALT2022; https://tc.computer.org/tclt/icalt-2022/ organized in the same venue, with one overlapping day (July 1, 2022).
