Teaching and Learning with AI Conference – STARS Repository

Who Can Submit

Anyone who has presented at the Teaching and Learning with AI conference, hosted by the University of Central Florida.

What to Submit

The goal of this repository is to promote scholarly publication and serve as an archive of the presentations held at the conference. Presenters (authors) are welcome to submit their presentation file(s) and additional supporting materials; this is not a requirement for the conference.

When to Submit

We recommend submitting your materials to this repository around the date the conference is held or shortly after. The conference committee will need time to review the submissions, so entries submitted at other times of the year may accidentally be missed or not reviewed in a timely manner.

How to Submit

Before submitting, please review the Submission Guidelines. When you’re ready to submit, select Submit Item.

Accessibility

Content, including additional files, must be made accessible to all readers before it is published in STARS.

  • Source documents: When creating a Word document, PowerPoint presentation, or Excel spreadsheet improve accessibility with the built-in accessibility checker for the source software and keep the accessibility panel open to promptly recognize issues as you create the file.
  • PDFs: To create an accessible PDF, it is crucial to begin with an accessible source document and use Adobe Acrobat Pro to create and verify PDF accessibility.
  • Videos: Videos must have captions where text is shown in real time on the screen and is synchronized with audio content.
  • Audio: Audio files must have an accompanying transcript that contains the text version of speech and non-speech content in the audio content.
  • Images: Alternative text that is accurate, equivalent, and succinct must be provided to convey the meaning of an image.
