Abstract | This volume contains all keynotes, papers, and posters presented and discussed at the 8th Workshop in Primary and Secondary Computing Education (WiPSCE) held 11-13 November 2013 in Aarhus, Denmark. Research in primary and secondary computing education is a young field with strong ties to national educational systems. Nevertheless, its theories, methods, and results are internationally applicable and of interest to researchers and practitioners in the field. We put a strong emphasis on scientific standards and international exchange of ideas. All submissions were double blind reviewed by at least three members of the international program committee. The reviews were conducted according to the international standards in our field and employed review criteria in eight categories. We accepted submission of full research papers, reports, short papers, and poster abstracts. The call for papers attracted a total of 44 submissions from 20 countries spanning five continents (12 countries in 2012). Four contributions were submitted as posters; of the remaining 40 submissions, only 13 were accepted in the category for which they were submitted resulting in a 32.5% acceptance rate for the conference. For the proceedings we accepted six full papers, two reports, 10 short papers, nine poster abstracts, and two, invited, keynote abstracts. PCK (Pedagogical Content Knowledge) was the special theme of WiPSCE 2013; one keynote and four papers (two sessions) were devoted to the topic. The second day of the conference was designed to be specifically relevant for (Danish) high school teachers. The conference in Aarhus was a great success. WiPSCE 2013 attracted 63 attendees from 16 countries with the majority from Europe (55) and the remainder from Israel (2), Japan (2), South Africa (2), and New Zealand (2). Within Europe, the majority of the attendees were from Denmark (17), Germany (15), and United Kingdom (7). The speakers and authors delivered wonderful presentations that created thoughtful and lively discussions within the audience, and the session chairs did excellent jobs facilitating peer interaction and discussions in addition to traditional session chairing. We thank everybody who in one way or another contributed to WiPSCE 2013, and we warmly invite everybody to join us for WiPSCE 2014, held 5-7 November 2014 in Berlin, Germany, and chaired by Carsten Schulte, Judith Gal-Ezer, and Michael E. Caspersen. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
