Meeting Description:

The BEA Workshop, one of the largest one-day workshops in the ACL community,
is a leading venue for NLP innovation for educational applications. The 12th
workshop will have oral presentation sessions and a large poster session in
order to maximize the amount of original work presented. 

The workshop will also host a Shared Task on Native Language Identification
(NLI). NLI is the process of automatically identifying the native language
(L1) of a non-native speaker based solely on language that he or she produces
in another language.


Call for Papers:

The 12th Workshop on the Innovative Use of NLP for Building Educational
Applications (BEA12)

(co-located with EMNLP)

Submission Deadline: June 11, 2017

The BEA Workshop, one of the largest one-day workshops in the ACL community,
is a leading venue for NLP innovation for educational applications. The 12th
workshop will have oral presentation sessions and a large poster session in
order to maximize the amount of original work presented. We invite both full
papers and short papers on topics including: automated scoring of textual and
spoken responses, intelligent tutoring, peer review, grammatical error
detection/correction, learner cognition, spoken dialogue, multimodal
applications, tools for teachers and test developers, and use of corpora.
Research that incorporates NLP for use with mobile and game-based platforms
will be of special interest.

Submission Information:

We will be using the ACL Submission Guidelines
(http://acl2017.org/calls/papers/) for the BEA12 Workshop this year. Authors
are invited to submit a full paper of up to 8 pages of content with up to 2
additional pages for references. We also invite short papers of up to 4 pages
of content, including 2 additional pages for references. Final camera ready
versions of accepted papers will be given an additional page of content to
address reviewer comments.

Papers which describe systems are also invited to give a demo of their system.
If you would like to present a demo in addition to presenting the paper,
please make sure to select either ''full paper + demo'' or ''short paper +
demo'' under ''Submission Category'' in the START submission page.

Previously published papers cannot be accepted. The submissions will be
reviewed by the program committee. As reviewing will be blind, please ensure
that papers are anonymous. Self-references that reveal the author's identity,
e.g., ''We previously showed (Smith, 1991) ...'', should be avoided. Instead,
use citations such as ''Smith previously showed (Smith, 1991) ...''.

We have also included conflict of interest in the submission form. You should
mark all potential reviewers who have been authors on the paper, are from the
same research group or institution, or who have seen versions of this paper or
discussed it with you.

We will be using the START conference system to manage submissions. 

Important Dates:

Submission Deadline: Sunday, June 11 - 23:59 EST 
Notification of Acceptance: Friday, June 30
Camera-ready Papers Due: Friday, July 14
Workshop: September 07 or 08
