IMPORTANT DATES:

Building upon past successes of the pre-ICIS HCI/MIS workshops as well as the tremendous interest in broad HCI issues exhibited by MIS colleagues, the AIS SIGHCI will hold its tenth annual pre-ICIS HCI/MIS research workshop prior to ICIS 2011 in Shanghai, China on Sunday, December 4, 2011.

SPECIAL EVENTS:

To commemorate the 10^th anniversary of the SIGHCI there will be a retrospective of the SIG offered by a selected panel, and a luncheon celebration. Following the workshop a business meeting will be conducted and all those interested in the SIGHCI are invited to attend.

WORKSHOP OBJECTIVE:

The objective of the workshop is to provide an open and constructive discussion forum of important HCI research in Information Systems that addresses the ways humans interact with information, technologies, and tasks - especially in business, managerial, organizational, social and/or cultural contexts. HCI in MIS is concerned with the macro level (versus the micro level) of Human-Computer Interaction analysis.

SPECIAL THEME PAPERS OF JAIS and THCI:

The best, completed research papers from the workshop will be fast-tracked for publication consideration in the Journal of the Association for Information Systems (JAIS) - http://aisel.aisnet.org/jais/ and AIS Transaction on Human Computer Interaction (THCI) - http://aisel.aisnet.org/thci/

SUBMISSION:

The workshop will be accepting high quality research papers (completed research or research-in-progress papers) and posters that describe novel, early, and creative research ideas. The submissions should not be currently under review elsewhere and the papers/posters should have not appeared elsewhere.

Maximum length: Completed research papers, research-in-progress papers, and posters must not exceed 14, 7, and 3 single-spaced pages, respectively. The page limit includes all text, figures, and tables, but does not include the cover page, abstract, keywords, and references.

File Formats: Only Word file formats will be accepted. All submissions must be formatted for 8.5 x 11 inch paper (1 inch = 2.5 cm) and have

1 inch margins all around. Please use Times New Roman 12-point font with single spacing for the body of the paper. The first page of the manuscript should have a title, the type of the submission (complete research, research in progress, or poster), total word count of the submission, an abstract of 150 words or less, and a list of 5-6 keywords.

Submissions will undergo a double-blind review process. Authors should agree to provide timely reviews of at most two other submissions, if requested. Manuscripts should be in MS Word format and be submitted as email attachments to the workshop program co-chairs at (sighci.workshop@gmail.com) with the subject heading "HCI/MIS workshop submission." Authors can use the body of the email as the cover letter for the submission and should ensure that their identities do not appear in any part of the manuscript.
