HCI in the classroom: the CHI'98 development consortium

Abstract

Each year the CHI conference reaches out to new communities that have an interest in learning more about CHI and that can teach CHI more about them. The Development Consortium (DC) at CHI 98 brought together selected educators from five countries that shared their views on HCI issues in educational settings. This year, DC participants attended a pre-conference workshop, took part in the CHIkids tutorial and CHIkids program, participated in regular CHI conference activities, and reflected on their experiences in a final session.
