Why we volunteer

Abstract

Second, we believe that our field can do better. We have learned much over the last 20 years, and yet there is so much that we still don’t know. We need to continue to advance the state of the art, both in research and in practice. We also need to re-invent both the HCI research agenda and the practice of user experience design as new technologies come into play – as we have seen with GUIs, with the Web, and with mobile devices. As technology changes, so must we change. As volunteers, we provide the leadership and the momentum that drives our field forward.
