Call for Participation

The HCI Education Community of Practice has been working for the past two years to create channels for discussion about HCI education and provide a platform for sharing HCI curricula and teaching experiences. Held as part of the CHI 2020 conference in Hawaii, EduCHI seeks to bring together an international community of scholars, practitioners, and researchers to shape the future of HCI education.

To that end, we are seeking several distinct types of submissions:

1. Papers 

A 4-8-page (full) or a 2-4-page (short) paper, in CHI Extended Abstracts format, in one of the following categories:

  • Research: Describe novel research on or about HCI education, following a traditional research paper format.
  • Provocations: Present a new, controversial, inspiring, or otherwise thought-provoking perspective on or about HCI education.

2. Demos / Discussions

A 2-4-page paper, in CHI Extended Abstracts format, in one of the following categories:

  • Teachable Moments: Describe and/or demonstrate an interesting or innovative teaching method, curricular approach, or other pedagogical tool(s) for HCI educators.
  • Unsolved Challenges: Explain an unsolved HCI education problem or other concern for HCI educators. A selection of these challenges will be introduced in the morning session and attendees will sign-up to discuss and brainstorm solutions in the afternoon session.

To apply, submit your paper at educhi2020.hotcrp.com by 4 February 2020 10 February 2020 (extended).

Applicants will be selected based on their experience, perspective, and potential contribution to achieving the symposium goals. All accepted papers and presentations will be posted on the symposium website. At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the symposium.

Please direct any questions about the symposium to EduCHI2020@hcilivingcurriculum.org
