Call for papers and abstract

The conference invites all types of papers on evaluation from researchers and practitioners.

A paper is an article draft and often a manuscript under development. The papers should fit the workshop themes and relate to general evaluation topics. Often a paper raises and answers questions and consists of elements like problem/question, theoretical background, methods, analysis, conclusion, and contribution, but the papers may take varies forms. Selection of papers will be done through submission of abstracts (deadline March 5th 2012) which must be accepted for one of the workshops.

We invite abstracts of not more than 400 words related to any of the workshop themes to be submitted no later than March 5th 2012.

The abstracts should focus on the main ideas of the papers i.e. they should explain the purpose of the paper, theoretical background, the methods of analysis (in empirical papers), main findings, and contributions. Furthermore, it is useful to indicate clearly how the paper links with the workshop.

All abstracts will be subject to peer-review and should be sent by email directly to the workshop leaders (see workshops).

Deadline for submitting the paper is May 15th.
