Papers Review Process: Papers are reviewed blindly by at least three independent reviewers and judged on their contribution to the field of information systems education. Papers are either accepted, conditionally accepted, rejected, or presentation-only.
Accepted papers: The authors are encouraged to address reviewer comments in the final version.
Conditionally accepted: Authors are invited to address reviewer comments and submit a corrected paper. After review of the author comments and the resubmitted paper, the papers committee may accept the paper, reject the paper, or send it for additional review.
Rejected: Papers are rejected if they are not on topic for the conference, or if their quality does not meet the minimum requirements for presentation.
Handouts: A few papers may meet the minimum requirements for presentation (i.e., the paper is on topic and has something important to say), but not meet the minimum requirements for peer-reviewed publication (e.g., it is not carefully written, or it is not complete enough for full formal publication, or it was not submitted in time for full review). These may be presented and published as handouts. Typically these are student papers, meeting handouts, workshop handouts, seminar descriptions, tutorials, panelist position papers, or last-minute submissions. Such materials may be approved for presentation at the conference and to be included as "handouts" in the non-refereed portion of the proceedings.
Final Revision: All authors are permitted to make final revisions to their papers after presenting but before the proceedings go to press.
