Abstract

Given the growth of Child Computer Interaction research and of the rapid adoption of interactive technologies as teaching tools, next generation HCI technologies play an important role in the future of education. Educators rely on technology to improve/adapt learning to the pedagogical needs of learners, thus the HCI community needs to examine how these concepts can be matched to contemporary paradigms in Educational pedagogy. The classroom is a challenging environment for evaluation, thus new interaction techniques need to be established to prove the value of new HCI interactions in the educational space. This workshop provides a forum to discuss key HCI issues facing next generation education ranging from whole class interactive whiteboards, small group interactive multi-touch tables, and individual personal response systems in the classroom and fits into the CHI 2011 featured community Child Computer Interaction.
