Rationale

The complexity and specificity of e-Learning projects requires the adaptation of software design and development methodologies and tools (e.g., agile methodologies, model-driven techniques, domain engineering approaches, web application frameworks, etc.) to the particular requirements of the e‑Learning context. Likewise, it is possible to find ad-hoc tools and methodologies specifically conceived for e-learning (e.g., production of learning contents by multidisciplinary groups, application of e-learning recommendation and standards, formative assessment approaches, etc.). This raises a new emerging discipline of e-Learning Software Engineering, which addresses all the aspects of the systematic conception, design, development and maintenance of e-Learning solutions.

However, Software Engineering concerns usually play a secondary role in typical e‑Learning scientific conferences, since these events are usually more focused on pedagogical and user-centered aspects of advanced technologies and educational systems than in how these technology and systems can be actually developed. Thus, aspects like modeling, design, project planning, life-cycle, etc. are barely addressed or treated as collateral matters.

The 6th International Workshop on Software Engineering for E-Learning (ISELEAR’15) is focused on all the Software Engineering aspects of the e-Learning application domain.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
• Software Requirements Engineering in eLearning.
• Software architectures, modeling, specification, design and programming of eLearning systems.
• Software technologies applied to the development of complex eLearning systems.
• Management of multidisciplinary teams of instructors, domain experts, and developers in the production and maintenance of e-Learning systems, applications and content.
• Testing, verification and validation of software in eLearning.
• Software Quality Assurance in eLearning.
• Empirical methods in E-Learning Software Engineering.
• Model-Driven Software Engineering for e-Learning.
