Tutorials

Due date: Friday, April 3, 1998

CSCW 98 will offer tutorials designed to give participants the opportunity to learn about CSCW concepts and techniques in intensive sessions. Proposals are solicited for half-day and full day tutorials.

Possible topics include, but are not limited to:

  • An introduction to CSCW
  • A technical overview of CSCW
  • Specific methodologies for understanding CSCW contexts and applications
  • Techniques for developing CSCW applications
  • Theories and/or practices in participatory design
  • Specific CSCW applications (e.g., collaborative games, collaborative writing tools, group meeting tools, media spaces, community data systems, virtual communities, social information filtering technology)
Submissions will be evaluated on the basis of the topic's importance and suitability for presentation in a tutorial format, expertise of the instructors, and the fit in the overall balance of the tutorial program. Tutorial instructors will be eligible for an honorarium and complimentary registration.

Submission requirements:

  • Submit 6 copies, each with a cover sheet (see General Submission Requirements)
  • Four short paragraphs for potential attendees stating goals and objectives of the tutorial, content of tutorial and kinds of activities, intended audience (including level, e.g., "beginners"), and qualifications of each instructor
  • A maximum of 5 pages describing the tutorial, including its duration (half-day or full-day) and a topic outline of the tutorial content
  • A/V and computer equipment required
  • Any other information that will assist the review committee
