Researcher-practitioner interaction

This workshop explores whether problems exist between HCI researchers and the practitioners who are consumers of research - and, if so, will endeavor to identify the dimensions of the problems and propose possible solutions. On the one hand, the workshop aims to articulate factors that may render the research literature inaccessible or irrelevant to practitioners and to suggest potential improvements. On the other hand, the workshop also aims to learn from researchers how their research could benefit from practitioner input.
