   ICWSM-21: CALL FOR WORKSHOPS
   WORKSHOPS AT THE 15TH INTERNATIONAL AAAI CONFERENCE ON WEB AND SOCIAL
   MEDIA
     *     Submission Deadline: January 22, 2021
     *     Proposal Submission Email: [3]workshops at icwsm.org
     *     Notification of acceptance: January 30, 2021

   The ICWSM-2021 Committee invites proposals for Workshops Day at the
   15th International AAAI Conference on Weblogs and Social Media
   (ICWSM-2021). The Workshops Day will be held on June 7th, 2021.
   Workshop participants will have the opportunity to meet and discuss
   issues with a selected focus -- providing an informal setting for
   active exchange among researchers and developers from a wide range of
   disciplines, including social science and computer science. Workshops
   are an excellent forum for exploring emerging approaches and task
   areas, bridging gaps between the social sciences and computing, and
   elucidating results of exploratory research.
   Members of all segments of the social media research community are
   encouraged to submit proposals. To foster interaction and exchange of
   ideas, the workshops will be kept small, with up to 40 participants.
   The format of workshops will be determined by their organizers. The two
   main criteria for the selection of the workshops will be the following:
     * The organizers encourage workshops that promote different types of
       activities, including challenges, games, and brainstorming, and
       networking sessions. The organizers discourage workshops that are
       structured as mini-conferences dominated by long talks and short
       discussions. Workshops should leave ample time for discussions and
       interaction between the participants and should also encourage the
       submission and presentation of position papers that discuss new
       research ideas.
     * The workshop should have the potential to attract the interest of
       researchers in computer science and social science. Proposals
       involving people of different backgrounds in the organizing
       committee and addressing topics at the intersection of different
       disciplines will have a higher chance of acceptance.

   Workshop organizers who want to publish the papers from their workshop
   (or significant portions of it) will have the opportunity to do so
   through workshop proceedings by the AAAI Press. For a list of last
   year's workshops see here:
