This book constitutes the refereed conference proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Web-Based Learning, ICWL 2022 and 7th International Symposium on Emerging Technologies for Education, SETE 2022, held in Tenerife, Spain in November 21–23, 2022.The 45 full papers and 5 short papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 82 submissions. The topics proposed in the ICWL&SETE Call for Papers included several relevant issues, ranging from Semantic Web for E-Learning, through Learning Analytics, Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning, Assessment, Pedagogical Issues, E-learning Platforms, and Tools, to Mobile Learning.In addition to regular papers, ICWL&SETE 2022 also featured a set of special workshops and tracks: The 5th International Workshop on Educational Technology for Language Learning (ETLL 2022),  The 6th International Symposium on User Modeling and Language Learning (UMLL 2022), Digitalization in Language and Cross-Cultural Education, First Workshop on Hardware and software systems as enablers for lifelong learning (HASSELL).

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Web-Based Learning, ICWL 2016, held in Rome, Italy, in October 2016. The 19 revised full papers presented together with 10 short papers and 4 poster papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 110 submissions.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the Second International Symposium, SETE 2017, held in conjunction with ICWL 2017, Cape Town, South Africa, in September 2017.The 52 full and 13 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 123 submissions.  This symposium attempts to provide opportunities for the crossfertilization of knowledge and ideas from researchers in diverse fields that make up this interdisciplinary research area.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Web-Based Learning, ICWL 2018, held in Chiang Mai, Thailand, in August 2018.The 11 revised full papers presented together with 4 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 37 submissions.

Research in the field of multimedia metadata is especially challenging: Lots of scientific publications and reports on research projects are published every year and the range of possible applications is diverse and huge. This book gives an overview on fundamental issues within the field of multimedia metadata focusing on contextualized, ubiquitous, accessible and interoperable services on a higher semantic level. The book in hand provides a selection of basic articles being a base for multimedia metadata research. Furthermore it presents a view on the current state of the art in multimedia metadata research. It provides information from versatile applications domains (Broadcasting, Interactive TV, E-Learning and Social Software) such as: Multimedia on the Web 2.0 - Databases for Multimedia (Meta-)Data - Multimedia Information Retrieval and Evaluation - Multimedia Metadata Standards - Ontologies for Multimedia.The multimedia metadata community (www.multimedia-metadata.info), wherefrom this book originated, brings together experts from research and industry in the area of multimedia metadata research and application development. The community bridges the gap between an academic research and an industrial scale development of innovative products. By summarizing the work of the community this book contributes to the aforementioned fields by addressing these topics for a broad range of readers.

To praise oneself is sure a fault; yet who That does aught good escapes it? If he feigns In those his words no whit, and all be true, The good for ever good remains. Book of Ill Humor West-Eastern Divan, by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (Translation by Edward Dowden) ICWL is an annual international conference series on Web-based learning that has so far been held in Asia, Australia and Europe. This series represents the cooperationofEuropeanandAsianresearcherstoadvancethe?eldofWeb-based learning. Numerous joint research papers and joint projects have emerged from the successful track record of ICWL. We have chosen a short quotation of the West-EasternDivan by JohannWolfgang von Goethe to expressthe spirit of the conference series establishing a stable bridge of researchbetween the continents. This year's conference location was a perfect symbol of this spirit. The 8th ICWL 2009 was held in Germany's westernmost located and truly European city Aachen. At the borders with Belgium and The Netherlands, it is within convenient reach of European centers like Brussels, Cologne, Paris and London.

Exactly these old traditions are revitalized in papers collected in this proceedings volume.

ICWL is an annual international conference series on Web-based learning that has so far been held in Asia, Europe and Australia. This series represents the cooperationofEuropeanandAsianresearcherstoadvancethe?eldofWeb-based learning. The 9th ICWL 2010 was held in Shanghai, China. ICWL 2010 was jointlyorganizedbytheHongKongWebSociety,ShanghaiUniversity.Shanghai, knownthroughouttheworldasthe"ParisoftheOrient,"isathrivingmetropolis delightfully mixing the West and East, old and new, ancient and modern. It was particularly special to hold ICWL 2010 in Shanghai, as Expo 2010 was held in the same city just before the conference period. This year, we received about 192 submissions. There were a total of 36 full papers and 8 short papers, representing an acceptance rate of about 23%; these papers are included in this LNCS proceedings volume. The authors of these s- missions came from 35 countries and regions, while the authors of the accepted paperscamefrom18countriesandregions.Wewouldliketo thank thereviewers for spending their precious time reviewing the papers and for providing valuable comments that aided signi?cantly in the paper selection process.We would like to especially thank our Organization Chair, Feiyue Ye, for spending an enormous amount of time and e?ort in coordinating the local - rangements. In fact, we would like to thank the entire conference Organizing Committee for their hard work in putting together the conference. In parti- lar, we would like to express our appreciation to our Registration Chair, Jiying (Jean) Wang, and Haoran Xie for their tremendous e?orts in communicating with the authors.
