Website Society for Learning Analytics Research
The Society for Learning Analytics Research (SoLAR) is seeking graduate student volunteers to help prepare the proceedings of the Learning Analytics and Knowledge (LAK) conference.
Accepted LAK27 long and short research papers will be published in the Journal of Learning Analytics (JLA) rather than in the ACM proceedings, as in all previous years. This shift requires each accepted manuscript to be reformatted to meet JLA’s layout standards.
The role: Volunteers will carry out layout editing of accepted papers — correcting formatting, structure, and typesetting so that each manuscript conforms to JLA requirements. You will be trained and supported throughout by the LAK Proceedings Chairs and the LAK Publication Workflow and Training Manager, working from clear written instructions and guidelines.
Requirements: Essential skills include working knowledge of LaTeX and MS Word. Prior editorial or typesetting experience is welcome but not required; attention to detail and reliability are essential.
Recognition: While this is a volunteer role, this prestigious affiliation will enhance your professional stature and can be prominently featured on your CV, showcasing your commitment to excellence and collaboration in the learning analytics field. Moreover, you will receive a 50% discount on LAK27 conference registration.
Deadline: Friday, October 16, 2026 at 5pm Eastern
