Review Notification, Program Placement
The ConnectED series of conferences are fully peer reviewed by an International Review Panel to ensure research dissemination of the highest quality. Members of the International Review Panel are invited to participate in the review process on the basis of their contribution to the field of design research. The full paper is subjected to a double blind peer review process by the International Review Panel. Successful authors have the opportunity to modify their papers to include recommendations from the International Review Panel. All approved papers are published in the conference proceedings.
CONNECTED 2010 will provide a broad forum for the presentation and discussion of issues related to Design Education. The Organising Committee may require full paper revision before final approval and reserves the right to reject for presentation any paper that does not meet content or presentation expectations. The Organising Committee, through its review process, will provide assistance to authors to meet the required standards for publication. The decision of ConnectED2010 on whether to accept a submission is final.
Papers submitted to ConnectED2010 will be double blind peer reviewed:
- in their entirety, not merely on the basis of an abstract or extract;
- before publication; and
- by appropriately independent, qualified experts.
Applicants will be notified of accepted papers no later than 14th March 2010.
