Call for Participation

EduCHI 2023, the 5th Annual Symposium on HCI Education, will bring together an international community of scholars, practitioners, and researchers for a series of presentations and interactive discussions about HCI education trends and challenges. As a platform for sharing HCI curricula, materials, and teaching experiences, we seek four types of submissions:

  1. Research Paper: Describe novel research on or about HCI education. (6–10 pages)
  2. Provocation/Unsolved Challenge: Present a new, controversial, inspiring, unsolved, or otherwise thought-provoking perspective on or about HCI education. (4–6 pages)
  3. Teachable Moment: Describe and/or demonstrate a useful or innovative teaching method, curricular approach, or other pedagogical tools for HCI educators. (4–6 pages)
  4. Master Class: Propose a 60 minute interactive training session on a particular topic, concept, or teaching method that HCI educators can incorporate into an assignment, class, or program. (4–6 pages)

Examples of each submission type can be found in previous EduCHI programs: EduCHI 2022, EduCHI 2021, EduCHI 2020

New for 2023!

Accepted papers will be part of the International Conference Proceedings Series published by ACM and will be archived in the ACM Digital Library.

Selection Process

Formally Reviewed.

All submissions will go through a rigorous, double-blind peer review process with three primary review criteria: the paper’s overall quality, its originality and novelty to the HCI education community, and its potential to engage attendees in thoughtful discussions.

The Technical Program Chairs will oversee the review process, including establishing a program committee (PC) of past EduCHI authors and those with expertise in the topic, selecting a minimum of three knowledgeable reviewers for each paper (at least one of which will be a member of the PC), and forming an initial recommendation for conditional paper acceptance or rejection based on the resulting reviews at a formal committee meeting with PC members.

Upon Acceptance of Your Paper

Following a conditional acceptance, participants will be asked to prepare the final camera-ready version of their submission as well as a brief summary of changes and clarifications in response to reviewers’ feedback.

The TPCs will review the camera-ready versions and summaries of changes to approve and formally accept the paper.

Authors of formally accepted papers will also be given the option of creating a captioned pre-recorded presentation and other supplemental content about their submission (slides, video, etc.) to be published on the symposium website and distributed to attendees prior to the event.

Authors of accepted papers will also receive instructions for formatting and preparing their paper for publication in the ACM Digital Library.

At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the symposium.
