CALL FOR PROGRAM COMMITTEE MEMBERS/REVIEWERS AND CONFERENCE VOLUNTEERS

iLRN 2020: 6th International Conference of the Immersive Learning Research Network
June 21 to 25, 2020, Online and in Virtual Reality

http://immersivelrn.org/ilrn2020

The 6th Annual International Conference of the Immersive Learning Research Network (iLRN 2020), the premier scholarly conference on the use of virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), mixed reality (MR), and other related technologies (collectively known as "XR") for supporting education, training, and learning across sectors and contexts. This year, the conference will take place fully online using a number of virtual reality and other collaboration platforms. In addition to being an IEEE technically co-sponsored conference, the iLRN 2020 Virtual Conference is being organized in partnership with Educators in VR, who were behind the highly successful Educators in VR International Summit earlier this year that included over 170 speakers and attracted over 6,000 event participants from around the globe. We are expecting 8,000+ attendees at iLRN 2020!
