"CFP ~ Integrating Research, Education, and Problem Solving"

«As you know, there is a growing academic and societal need for the integration of academic activities among themselves and with Society, including private and public sectors. An increasing number of academics have noticed the importance of integrating Research, Education, and Problem Solving among themselves and with societal and corporate real life problems.
To address these integrating processes is the purpose of the 2nd International Symposium on Integrating Research, Education, and Problem Solving: IREPS 2012
to be held in Orlando, Florida, USA, on March 25 - 28, 2012, jointly with ICETI 2012

and IMCIC 2012
The submission deadline for the four collocated events is November 23rd, 2011.
We would like to invite you to submit an extended abstract or a draft paper as a contribution to this important Symposium (or to any of its collocated events). Your contribution may be oriented to how any kind of partial or global integration might be done and/or why it is important or useful to be done. You can address via reflection why it should be done, or via reflective practice how it might be effectively achieved. Submissions related to Case Studies are also accepted, as well as Action Research in how to achieve some specific or general integration of academic activities.
Please, check the web site for acceptance and camera ready deadlines, as well as for details with regards to awards for best papers, two-tier peer reviewing, journal publication of the best 20% of the presented papers, technical keynote speakers, virtual participation, invited sessions organization, etc.
