—————————————————————————
The huge success and widespread adoption of the Linked Data approach has
led to the availability of vast amounts of public data which has the
potential to fundamentally aid and transform the production, delivery
and consumption of educational services and content.

The LILE2014 workshop aims to be a highly interactive research forum for
exploring the promises of the Web of Linked Data in the broad area of
learning by gathering researchers from different communities, such as
Linked Data/Semantic Web, Social Web, Technology Enhanced Learning
(TEL), and Education.

We will welcome high-quality papers about actual trends in (a) how
education takes advantage of the Web of Data, especially through Linked
Data technologies and (b) how Linked Data principles are being applied
in educational contexts.

The annual Linked Learning workshop series was established 4 years ago
and has gathered a significant and constantly growing community since
its first edition, proving the high relevance and timeliness of the
workshop scope: use of Linked Data in educational scenarios.

This year’s LILE workshop will be organized in cooperation with the Vici
Competition of the LinkedUp project, the final edition of a series of
three consecutive open competitions (http://linkedup-challenge.org/)
that ask for innovative and robust tools that analyse and/or integrate
open web data for educational purposes.
