The interest fields of AIED include by are not limited to:
socially informed design, collaborative and group learning, learning systems platforms and architectures, modeling and representation, intelligent tutoring and scaffolding, interaction design and novel interfaces and special application fields. A bundle of the papers presented during AIED05 will be published by IOS Press.
