**************************************************************
The Diagrams conference provides a united forum for all researchers with an
interest in the study of diagrams. The conference fosters
multi-disciplinarity and allows researchers from areas such as computer
science, mathematics, psychology, philosophy, history (of science, art,
etc.), education research and more to meet and share their perspectives on
the theory and application of diagrams.
We invite tutorials consisting of shorter presentations and activities that
run for a maximum of 2 hours. Previously, attendees have particularly
enjoyed tutorials that are interactive and spark debate. In contrast to
Workshops, Tutorials do not solicit contributions from attendees.
Tutorials are expected to address topics that are of interest to the
Diagrams 2026 conference attendees. These include, but are not limited to,
the issues of interest found on the Calls pages for the main tracks,
philosophy track and psychology & education track. Examples of previous
Tutorials include:
• Visualizing "Information"
• Learning to use the Openbox: A Framework for the Implementation of
Heterogeneous Reasoning
• Drawing Euler Diagrams for Information Visualization
• Representational Systems Theory: What, Why and How?
• Square of Opposition: Theory and Applications
• Diagrams in the Age of Kant
• Euclid's Elements: The Board Game
• Forgotten diagrams and their applications in gestures
• Neural Circuit Diagrams: A Diagrammatic Introduction to Deep Learning
Models
• Cognitive Modelling of Interpretations of Diagrams and Notations
At least one of the authors of an accepted tutorial submission will be
expected to attend the conference to give the tutorial to interested
conference attendees.
