Hi Everyone! Next week we'll be doing a CHI Paper swap (Zhicong's idea + implementation), everybody will bring as much or as little as they want to have swapped and reviewed. Or if you just want to help review for others you can do that as well, please sign up here and we will prepare everything. Signup Sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vJMH2U5GJavmJUMV9mzO_yXRidTIgj9mLhQ… The deadline to sign up is the morning of Monday September 7th so we have time to work out pairings and everything.

Research HCI Meeting Today
by Blaine Lewis 11 Aug '20

11 Aug '20

Hi Everyone, Today we have a research based HCI meeting at 12:30pm EST. I’m starting to run out of things I can confidently talk about and teach, so I figure we’ll defer to people who really are experts in the field. Today we’ll be having a watch party of a video on how to do research. My suggestion is a seminar taught by Professor Carl Gutwin titled “How to write a CHI paper” https://vimeo.com/431504384 If anybody has other suggestions though I am super open to them, this video is 2 hours long, but we’ll probably just watch about 50 minutes of it and then leave some time for discussion. Best, Blaine

Research HCI Meeting Today
by Blaine Lewis 28 Jul '20

28 Jul '20

Hi Everyone! Today we have a research focused HCI meeting. This week we'll spend the first half having somewhat of a roundtable discussion around what forward progress in graduate studies mean, and why mental health is as much a part of research as learning to write an abstract. Then we'll finish off by going around and having a few lab members speak on what research they have been working on over the summer. If anybody has any other ideas for what we can do with these meetings or wants to use some of the time to do a group brainstorm please send me a message and we can arrange that! Best, Blaine

Let's try out calendar invites to this list, to see if we can be more organized
by Joseph Jay Williams 07 Jul '20

Let's try out calendar invites to this list, to see if we can be more organized. I just joined the HCI social and realized a big reason I miss it is because there isn't a calendar invite. E.g. it'd be great if we could have a calendar invite with the zoom link, and then whoever organizes it could just paste the agenda or any links into the body of the calendar invite. A few of us on the call discussed trying out calendar invites, and I convinced Blaine to give it a shot. Blaine for next week, can you try out sending an invite to hci(a)dgp.toronto.edu? I'm sure it will cause some chaos as some people use google, some outlook, and there are aliased sublists (e.g. my iai list, Khai's list, etc) But everyone, please just send polite & helpful info and screenshots of your user experience to Blaine and I. If we can figure out how to do calendaring, it'll be really helpful for lab organization. Any advice/suggestions/feedback welcome of course, with the understanding that I will be grateful for it, but not necessarily follow it (don't be too mad!), because of not understanding, not remembering, not having time, having other constraints, or a million other reasons!

Social HCI Meeting Today
by Blaine Lewis 07 Jul '20

07 Jul '20

Hi Everyone, Let's meet up today at 12:30 and hang out as part of the HCI social meeting schedule. I don't have anything serious planned so I thought we'd just play some games together! Hopefully some people who join have Jackbox or something. I was also thinking about maybe doing houseparty as I've heard it can be fun. https://utoronto.zoom.us/j/96404556988 See you soon! Blaine
