Summary: As technology changes, so does the area of human-computer interaction. HCI
education must continuously change to meet the new challenges to user
interaction. The World Wide Web and other distributed networks, hand-held
devices, and embedded computing all present new challenges for user-centered
design methods, usability testing, and other forms of evaluation. In addition,
as more people use technology, the diversity of users increases, requiring
increased attention to concepts such as accessibility and universal usability.
This panel will address the challenges of keeping HCI education up-to-date and
offer approaches that have been successfully used. The four major topics
addressed by the panel will be 1) the challenge of rapidly changing technology,
2) new methods for user-centered design, 3) student involvement with users, and
4) balancing HCI theory and HCI practice.

Summary: As we look to the future of HCI education, it is clear that, despite major
HCI curriculum initiatives [1, 2], there is little consensus in the CHI
community about what the content of HCI education should include or about how
and by whom that content should be delivered. This panel gives voice to both
prevailing and minority opinions on the subject.

Keywords: HCI education, Multimedia, Collaborative work, Social issues in design
Summary: How do we bring the real world into the classroom? How do we teach students
to see and appreciate its complexities without overwhelming them? How do we
encourage them to value collaborative teamwork and multi-disciplinary
approaches to problems? And how do we instill the importance of addressing
larger social issues in their professional future?
This poster will describe a multi-disciplinary team approach to teaching
user-centered interface design. The course focused on the development of
multimedia prototypes for the VCU Cancer Center. How the course impacted upon
student motivation for learning, group process and interface design will be
presented.

What is Needed
Summary: HCI educators face a number of challenges in developing successful learning
environments. These include scanning and filtering for relevant HCI
information, extending and adapting that knowledge for use in educational
contexts, and integrating the result into existing education frameworks. Each
of these is considered in more detail and a set of recommendations for
supporting HCI educators also is described. Developing closer ties between the
research, education and practice communities of HCI is recommended.

Summary: The HCI Education survey describes 68 programs, 162 faculty, and 139 courses
in graduate-level education in human-computer interaction. In addition to the
data files on each program, summary reports of programs, faculty, courses and
other information have been generated. The survey was designed, conducted,
analyzed, and distributed entirely online using Internet mail and ftp. The low
cost and active nature of the medium of the survey administration and
distribution makes it possible to have continuously updated information.

Summary:
The theme of this 1.5 day (Sunday and Monday morning) workshop is to focus
on the link between pedagogical theory and successful instruction in HCI by
providing a forum for collaborative work on teaching techniques. We address
active HCI teachers in academia and industry and emphasize the notion of
working together at the workshop rather than merely talking about the issues of
interest.
The goals of the workshop are to:
- facilitate exchange of teaching ideas and techniques;
- provide a forum of teacher colleagues for trying out and refining teaching ideas;
- support reflection about teaching techniques in terms of teaching and learning theories;
- encourage continued collaboration between HCI teachers across the world.

Summary: Teaching real-world processes, such as computer system design, is made
particularly difficult by the young and rapidly evolving nature of the HCI
discipline. HCI educators must present design in as meaningful and coherent a
way as possible whilst at the same time acknowledging real-world practices.
In this workshop we will briefly review typical lifecycle oriented software
design and then examine two approaches which provide ways of focusing on HCI
design concerns. The first combines visualising the conceptual aspects of the
design with rapid iterative testing whilst the second focuses on designing for
socio-technical issues. We will discuss the advantages of each approach and
consider how to teach them to students. The overall aim of this workshop is to
advance and innovate teaching of HCI design.

Summary: As the field of HCI grows, the need for related courses, curricula and
training also expands. Keeping abreast of new developments is only one part of
the teaching challenge. Determining the best methods for translating this
knowledge into a meaningful learning experience is, perhaps, the greater
challenge.
The CHI'92 Workshop grew out of the efforts of the Curriculum Development
Group's ACM/SIGCHI Curriculum for Human-Computer Interaction. (You know, the
report with the lime green cover!) The CDG's report represented the combined
viewpoints of many seasoned experts, but we wanted to learn more about what
other HCI teachers and trainers are currently doing nationally and
internationally. We were interested in finding the "state of the practice" --
what experienced teachers have already learned, what challenges remain and how
educators' innovations and visions are shaping the future of HCI education.
This article summarizes the activities of the SIGCHI Workshop "Lessons
Learned from Teaching HCI: Challenges, Innovations and Visions." We think the
ideas expressed here could be a catalyst for the design of future workshops,
articles and debates in the field of HCI education.

Summary: The HCI Survey of Educational Programs is now available to colleges,
faculty, and students. The survey, developed jointly by Gary Perlman and Jean
Gasen, contains information about degree and non-degree programs, faculty, and
courses on Human-Computer Interaction. The primary goal of the Survey is to
provide prospective students (particularly graduate students) information about
educational opportunities, and secondarily to provide HCI educators information
about other HCI educators. Unlike some of the other surveys, we wanted the HCI
Education Survey to be easily updated and accessed primarily in electronic
form. The cost of printing and mailing the survey and the widespread
availability of electronic mail and personal computers made the collection and
dissemination of an electronic report preferred over print media.
