CHI ten year view: a community discussion

Abstract

● What will be the state of the CHI community in the year 2006? What kind of work will the members of that community be doing? What will they consider to be the key issues and research questions of the day? What will be the nature of the social and technological context in which their work will occur? What kind of educational preparation and work experience will characterize a successful CHI professional? What body of knowledge and set of skills will form the common ground of the field? These scenarios will then be used to address the question: How can the CHI community create and sustain common ground today that will help it thrive and and make important contributions in 2006 and beyond?
