TFPIE 2019 Call for papers
http://www.staff.science.uu.nl/~hage0101/tfpie2019/index.html
(June 11th, University of British Columbia, Vancouver Canada, co-located 
with TFP 2019)

TFPIE 2019 welcomes submissions describing techniques used in the 
classroom, tools used
in and/or developed for the classroom and any creative use of functional 
programming (FP)
to aid education in or outside Computer Science. Topics of interest 
include, but are not
limited to:

  FP and beginning CS students
  FP and Computational Thinking
  FP and Artificial Intelligence
  FP in Robotics
  FP and Music
  Advanced FP for undergraduates
  FP in graduate education
  Engaging students in research using FP
  FP in Programming Languages
  FP in the high school curriculum
  FP as a stepping stone to other CS topics
  FP and Philosophy
  The pedagogy of teaching FP
  FP and e-learning: MOOCs, automated assessment etc.
  Best Lectures Ð more details below

In addition to papers, we are requesting best lecture presentations. 
What's your
best lecture topic in an FP related course? Do you have a fun way to 
present FP
concepts to novices or perhaps an especially interesting presentation of a
difficult topic? In either case, please consider sharing it. Best 
lecture topics
will be selected for presentation based on a short abstract describing the
lecture and its interest to TFPIE attendees. The length of the presentation
should be comparable to that of a paper. On top of the lecture itself,
the presentation can also provide commentary on the lecture.

Submissions
Potential presenters are invited to submit an extended abstract (4-6 
pages) or a
draft paper (up to 16 pages) in EPTCS style. The authors of accepted
presentations will have their preprints and their slides made available 
on the
workshop's website. Papers and abstracts can be submitted via easychair 
at the
following link:

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=tfpie2019

After the workshop, presenters will be invited to submit (a revised 
version of)
their article for review. The PC will select the best articles that will be
published in the Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science 
(EPTCS).
Articles rejected for presentation and extended abstracts will not be 
formally
reviewed by the PC.
