NordiCHI 2012 invites workshop proposals addressing basic research, applied research, new methodologies, emerging application areas, design innovations, and HCI education. The goal of the workshops is to generate ideas that might give the NordiCHI community new ways of thinking about well traveled themes and topics or that might suggest new promising directions for future work. For a sample of workshop topics from the last conference, please look at the NordiCHI 2010 Workshop Program (http://www.yourhost.is/en/nordichi-2010/workshop-program.html). Workshops are held the day before the start of the conference and can be full or half-day in length. We will give preference to workshops that focus on community building and communal knowledge creation rather than structured miniature paper presentation sessions. Workshop proposals should be emailed to chairs@nordichi2012.org. The proposal should be no longer than 1500 words and should detail: (1)Title and duration; (2)Workshop theme and goals, (3)Outcomes of the workshop; (4)Relevance to the field; (5)Intended audience; (6)Organizers' names and backgrounds; (7)Expected number, balance and selection of participants; (8)Description of activities planned; (9)Needed facilities; For further information, please contact the workshop chairs worktut@nordichi2012.org Workshops Co-Chairs * Irina Shklovski ITU * Joseph Jofish Kaye Nokia Research * workshops at http://www.nordichi2012.org/ -- ============================================== Irina Shklovski Assistant Professor Design, Culture, Mobility& Communication (DCMC) IT University of Copenhagen Rued Langgaards Vej, 7 2300, Copenhagen S.
