The focus of the workshop is on bringing together research on scientific communities, in particular, in mathematics in an educational scope. This addresses online, virtual communities as well as communities of practices and interest.

Please note that when speaking of an educational scope or learning scenario I do not aim at restricting the workshop to eLearning applications in university, school, and companies but also encourage you to talk about approaches that support the life-long-learning as well as the commonly creation and acceptance of knowledge in science.
