In EasyChair, different tracks may be used, for example for different submission types. If you are a reviewer in more than one track, it may be necessary to switch between those tracks to see the different submissions that have been assigned to you in the different tracks.

Upon logging in, the different roles for this and other conferences may already be displayed - here, you only need to choose the correct role/track in which you would like to login. Once you have selected a role, you can switch to another role by hovering over the "EasyChair" menu item and clicking on "My recent roles" in the drop down menu:

You then get back to the list of roles in the different tracks. You can now switch to the next track.

Note: if you have not visited a role in a while, you might need to click on "All Roles" in the right top corner menu on the page with the listed roles.

When accessing EasyChair, please click on the PC member role in which you want to add a review:

If reviews have been assigned to you in more than track, you need to access the roles separately to submit reviews to those tracks.

After clicking on the respective role, you will see a list of submissions that have been assigned to you in that role. When clicking on "Assigned to me" item in the the "Review" tab in the horizontal menu, you will see this list again, but this time, a little "+" sign in the right most column gives you the option to add a new review for this submission.

When clicking on that "+" sign, a new page with the review form will open. On top, you can find the Reviewer Instructions. In the form below, you will find review criteria to review and rate the paper, and some open text fields to describe your ratings. It is also possible to attach a document with further feedback, if you want that.

The topics based on the iLRN conference tracks and branch houses (https://www.immersivelrn.org/initiatives/houses-of-application/) will be used to assign papers to you for review, so that you can review the papers which fit your areas of expertise and interest. If you do not set your topics of interest in the system, we assume that you are open to review submissions from all topics.

When you log in to EasyChair, you should be able to see iLRN2024 as your conference, and your role in it as a PC member in the respective track, for example like this:

In this view, you might see more than one conference, if you have used EasyChair in other conferences, or you may see multiple roles in the iLRN conference, for example if you are a PC member in multiple tracks or also submitted a paper as an author. If you do not see the iLRN PC member role that you think you should see, try clicking the "All roles" link in the top right corner (not in this screenshot). If you still do not see the role, you might still need to accept your invitation to the Program Committee. Contact conference@immersivelrn.org if you still have issues with finding the role.

IMPORTANT: If you are a PC member in multiple tracks, you need to set your topics in each of them.

When you click on the PC member role, you get to a view with multiple horizontal menu items on top, including "Submissions", "Reviews", etc. There, you should also find the item "Conference". When you hover over it, there is a drop-down menu with the option "My topics":

When you click on that, you get the option to choose the topics you would like to review, which are based on the iLRN tracks (see example below). You need to click the "Save selection" button to save the topics in your profile.

You can still change your topics until the papers are assigned.
