What kind of work is HCI work?

Abstract

This panel will ask the HCI community to consider what HCI means when viewed through different disciplinary perspectives. Respected professionals in the field will offer their views on HCI, considering what it means as science, as design, as workplace democracy, and as management. Each panel member will also respond to two HCI design challenges, in which they can show how their disciplinary perspective would analyze, design, and evaluate during "real-time problem-solving." 'Throughout the panel, audience members will be invited to ask questions and discuss their own perspectives on HCI.
