Abstract

HCI education reflects the continual evolution of HCI, embracing the changing landscapes of technology, infrastructure, and technology use. This forum aims to provide a platform for HCI educators, practitioners, researchers, and students to share their perspectives, reflections, and experiences related to HCI education. --- Sukeshini Grandhi, Editor

A representation approach to conceptualizing tangible learning environments
TEI '08: Proceedings of the 2nd international conference on Tangible and embedded interaction

Tangibles, in the form of physical artefacts embedded with sensor technologies, offer the opportunity to exploit and build on our everyday interaction and experience with the world, enabling new forms of engagement and access to tools for supporting ...
Information in social practice: A practice approach to understanding information activities in personal photography

This theoretical paper explores the implications of adopting a practice approach in information science, proposing 'information in social practice' as an umbrella term in preference to 'information behaviour' or 'information practice'. The paper ...
An activity theory approach to affordance
NordiCHI '02: Proceedings of the second Nordic conference on Human-computer interaction

The concept of affordance was introduced to the field of HCI as a means to enhance the understandability and usability of artifacts and especially their user interface. The results have however not been entirely convincing. This paper presents a ...
