Workshops

A workshop is like a mini-conference within the conference. It is a chance for attendees with common interests to meet for a focused discussion. A workshop may give an opportunity to move a new field forward and build community. A workshop might address research, practice, methodologies, application areas, innovations, management issues or education. (Workshops are not teaching events – those would be tutorials described below.)

Each workshop should generate ideas that will give the community a new way of thinking about the topic or that suggest promising directions for future research or practice. Each workshop will be given a 15-minute slot during the main conference to share ideas and conclusions with the rest of the attendees. A workshop may be one-day or two-days long. A conference-attendee needs to register separately for attending a workshop (and some conference attendees may choose to attend the workshops only and skip the conference).

Those who would like to organize a workshop should send a 200-word description of their workshop to submissions@indiahci2011.in. The co-chairs will review and accept the best proposals and publicize them on the conference web site.
