L.S.,
Apologies for any duplicates=
you may receive.
Please find below the Second=
Call for Papers for the Second International Workshop on Trends in Functio=
nal Programming In Education (TFPIE).
Since the first CfP, we have=
confirmed that the proceedings will be published in the Electronic Proceed=
ings in Theoretical Computer Science. Moreover, we’ve started short-l=
isting candidates for a key-note. Your suggestions
for keynote speakers are welcome. More information will become available o=
n the workshop's website [1].
Please forward this CfP to w=
hatever forum you consider appropriate.

TFPIE
-----
The second International Wor=
kshop on Trends in Functional Programming in Education, TFPIE 2013, is co-l=
ocated with Trends in Functional Programming (TFP 2013) at Brigham Young Un=
iversity in Utah. The goal of TFPIE
is to gather researchers, teachers and all professionals that use, or are =
interested in the use of, functional programming in education. TFPIE aims t=
o be a venue were novel ideas, classroom-tested ideas and work-in-progress =
on the use of funcitonal programming
in education are discussed. The one-day workshop will foster a spirit of o=
pen discussion by having a review process for publication after the worksho=
p.
The program chair of TFPIE 2=
013 will screen submissions to ensure that all presentations are within sco=
pe and are of interest to participants. Potential presenters are invited to=
submit an extended abstract (4–6 pages)
or an article (up to 16 pages) in EPTCS style. The authors of all accepted=
presentations will have their preprints and their slides made available on=
the workshop’s website/wiki. Any visitors to the TFPIE 2013 website/=
wiki will be able to add comments. This
includes presenters who may respond to comments and questions as well as p=
rovide pointers to improvements and follow-up work. After the workshop, the=
presenters will be invited to submit (a revised version of) their article =
for review. The PC will select the
best articles for publication in the Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical=
Computer Science journal (EPTCS). Articles rejected for presentation and a=
ll extended abstracts will not be formally reviewed by the PC.
TFPIE 2013 welcomes submissi=
ons describing practical techniques used in the classroom, tools used in an=
d/or developed for the classroom and any creative use of functional program=
ming (FP) to aid education in or outside
Computer Science. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Teaching FP to highschool,=
beginning CS, and graduate students
- FP as a teaching tool for =
other (CS) topics
- FP and Robotics, Music and=
Philosophy
- Advanced FP for undergradu=
ates
- Engaging students in resea=
rch using FP
- FP in Programming Language=
s
- FP as a stepping stone to =
other CS topics

Brigham Young University (BY=
U) is the third-largest private university and the largest explicitly relig=
ious university in the United States of America. Although BYU is owned and =
operated by the LDS church, the workshop
is independent of this affiliation. By BYU’s own pen:
"Brigham Young Universi=
ty seeks to develop students of faith, intellect and character who have the=
skills and the desire to continue learning and to serve others throughout =
their lives. Established in 1875, the university
provides an outstanding education in an atmosphere consistent with the ide=
als and principles of its sponsor, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day=
Saints. Known for its academically minded and internationally experienced =
student body, its world-class teaching
and its beautiful mountain location, BYU is also recognized for its extens=
ive language programs, talented performing arts ensembles, outstanding spor=
ts programs and devotion to combining solid scholarship with the principles=
of the restored gospel of Jesus
Christ."
