Basically a journal dedicated to experimenting with how to teach the craft of designing interfaces and deconstructing syllabi topics, assignments, exercises?
or any online forum or community (slack, discord, subreddit) for #ixd#design to reflect and deconstruct, discuss each other's pedagogy, syllabus, assignments, exercises?
A place dedicated to learning & experimenting with how to teach the craft of designing interfaces
Our paper "Post-growth Human-Computer Interaction" with @neha and Bonnie Nardi on orienting HCI to after/beyond unjust and unsustainable economic growth politics is now available in the ACM DL: https://doi.org/10.1145/3624981
We now invite HCI to embrace post-growth ideas, engage, critique, and leverage them to ideate and innovate transformative HCI practices towards technology-mediated just and sustainable change.
Colleagues in Boston, please join us next Thursday (Sept 21 at 3pm) for a talk by Dan Weld. Dan is Chief Scientist and General Manager of Semantic Scholar at the Allen Institute of Artificial Intelligence and Professor Emeritus at the University of Washington. He will speak on a topic at the intersection of #HCI and #AI:
Intelligence Augmentation: Effective Human-AI Interaction to Supercharge Scientific Research
Any online design forum or community (slack, discord) where people reflect and deconstruct, discuss UI metaphors, widgets, affordances, patterns, taxonomies, navigation schemas and their connection with social practices in depth?
Who's in Chicago this fall? I'll be there in early November and I'm looking to meet with researchers or groups interested in remote/hybrid collaboration and/or how fiction can inform design. Please boost! #HCI#CSCW#JaneAusten (no really)
In my undergrad #HCI class, I introduce speculative design fiction as one of several ways of prototyping product concept ideas. Currently, the Uninvited Guest video is my go to example because of its brevity, interesting critical perspective, and humor. But I'd love to widen/refresh my repertoire. Any other examples (don't have to be videos)?
An appeal by Prof. Josiah Hester (a Native Hawaiian professor in computing) to the #HCI community not to engage with the #CHI conference in Hawaii. Many good reasons: over tourism, Maui fires, etc. I found the arguments compelling. My current plan is to take action where I bear the cost (I won't attend) but I will support students submitting to CHI -- the professional impact on them is huge. But I will not offer CHI as a networking opportunity to non-presenting students.
