HCI Education and Education for HCI: Current Opportunities and Challenges

Abstract

Beyond ongoing challenges in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) education, such as managing interdisciplinarity and the lack of data-driven support for new pedagogical practices, HCI educators worldwide also need to address the impact of rapidly changing socio-technical landscapes. In particular, there is an urgent need to respond to emerging technologies and address social responsibility in diverse and dynamic contexts. This workshop aims to provide a venue for HCI educators, researchers, and other interested parties to reflect upon and exchange experiences on how new and persistent challenges have been addressed. The recent ACM recommendations for HCI education and the impact of the emerging field of Human-AI Interaction (HAI) in HCI are some of the perspectives proposed to frame discussions and opportunities to be explored by participants
