[apologies for cross-posting] ::: ECSCW 2013 ::: Call for Workshops and Master Classes The 13th European Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work (ECSCW 2013) 21-25 September 2013, Paphos, Cyprus. Website: http://www.ecscw2013.org/ Master Classes and Workshops will be held on Saturday 21 - Sunday 22 September. Submission deadline for proposals: March 8, 2013 Notification: April 11, 2013 Proposed workshop paper deadline: June 28, 2013 Workshops Workshops are designed to offer an informal environment for focused group discussion and learning. They can be in the format of presentation followed by synthesis of contributions and discussion. However, we also encourage proposals that include activities such as extensive hands-on sessions, site explorations, or applied method sessions to advance practical understandings of emerging application areas, concepts, and new methodologies. Each workshop should generate ideas that give the ECSCW community a new, organized way of thinking about a given topic or suggest promising directions for future research. Workshops may be half-day or full day sessions. Workshop proposals should consist of an abstract and a detailed proposal. The abstract should be no more than 150 words. The body of the proposal should be no more than 3000 words, and should include a description of the theme(s) of the workshop, the workshop activities and goals, the duration of the workshop (one or two full days), the background of the organizer(s), the maximum number of participants, and the means of recruiting and selecting participants. We encourage workshop organizers to create web-based resources for their workshops so that advertising, submission and organization can be handled online. Submissions should be sent through the ECSCW 2013 electronic submission system. Accepted workshops will need to provide a short description of the workshop for publication on the conference web site containing the workshop title, names and affiliations of organizers, 150-word abstract, workshop web site, and position paper submission or other participation requirements. Accepted workshops may optionally provide a 2-page Workshop Program for printing in the conference supplemental proceedings. The program should contain the workshop title, 150-word abstract, objectives, participant names and schedule.
