Call for Tutorials

What is a MobileHCI Tutorial?

MobileHCI tutorials are in-depth presentations of fundamental or state-of-the-art topics presented by researchers or practitioners within the field of MobileHCI, which is about effective interaction with and through mobile devices, applications, and services. The tutorials empower attendees to learn new skills and offer possibilities to meet new people and discuss topics of shared interest. The scope for tutorials is broad and includes topics, such as new technologies, research approaches and methodologies, design practices, user/consumer insights, investigations into new services/applications/interfaces, statistics, and much more. Virtual or Augmented Reality, wearable computing, and generally applications with technology on the go in mind are highly recommended.

A tutorial should focus on its topic in detail and include references to the "must-read" papers or materials within its domain. A participatory approach in which the tutorial participants actively engage in exercises is welcomed, though not required. The expected audience will vary in terms of prior knowledge, but will largely consist of researchers, PhD students, practitioners, and educators. Tutorial proposal submissions by industrials are welcomed as well.

The overall conference theme in 2023 is "Beyond morality: Ethics and action in MobileHCI", so we invite tutorials to discuss ethical aspects in their work, as part of their problem definitions, system design, experiment design, instrument and metric adoption and conclusions.
