eLearning SIG

ABSTRACT

Many CHI attendees are involved in eLearning as a student, teacher, or developer of online courses or technologies. However, to date there has been insufficient focus on designing and facilitating a good learner experience. This SIG builds upon the well-attended eLearning SIGs from CHI 2001 and 2002 by examining in greater depth the issues and needs of the eLearning and HCI communities and fostering better communication and collaboration between these communities. eLearning is a Special Area for CHI 2003, and there will be an invited session on eLearning, focusing, like the SIG, on bringing the lessons from HCI to eLearning.
