Student Award

Every year TCLT offers the Early Career Researcher Award in Learning Technologies and the Student Award program.

The Student Award program is offered annually (subject to available funds) and aims to contribute partly to the travel expenses of a student to attend and present her/his research work in the TCLT’s flagship International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies (ICALT) and International Conference on Technology for Education (T4E). Starting from 2020, this award has two categories, one is the regular student travel award and the other one is Underrepresented Group Student travel award. The eligibility criteria, the selection process and the actual financial support compensation are announced every year to the students of accepted papers in ICALT and T4E.

The researchers that have received the Student Award since 2014 and Underrepresented Group Student Award since 2020 are:
