We are going to have a SIG meeting at CHI 2018. Here is the link to the original SIG paper: https://doi.org/10.1145/3170427.3185364
I pasted the CFP! Everyone are welcomed.
====================================================
Approaching Engagement towards Human-Engaged Computing
Special Interest Group (SIG) Meeting at CHI 2018
Call for Participation
====================================================
Debates regarding the nature and role of HCI research and practice have intensified in recent years, given the ever increasingly intertwined relations between humans and technologies. The framework of Human-Engaged Computing (HEC) was proposed and developed over a series of scholarly workshops to complement mainstream HCI models by leveraging synergy between humans and computers with its key notion of “engagement”.
Previous workshop meetings found “engagement” to be a constructive and extendable notion through which to investigate synergized human-computer relationships, but many aspects concerning the core concept remain underexplored. This SIG aims to tackle the notion of engagement.
Focusing on cultivating an inspiring discussion on the notion of “engagement”, the SIG will provide an excellent opportunity to a broader audience of the CHI community to share and discuss relevant knowledge and insights and identify new research opportunities and future directions.
Everybody is cordially invited to participate in the in-person meeting, which is going to take place during the main conference of CHI 2018 in Montreal:
Wednesday, April 25, 14:00 – 15:20, Room number – 514A
No prior registration is required.
Looking forward to seeing you all in Montreal!
