Professional Service

BuckCHI: I served as the first elected chair of BuckCHI, the Central Ohio Local SIGCHI Chapter 1997-1998.
SIGCHI: After serving as the Adjuct Chair for Education and later the Vice Chair for Publications (95-97), I lingered as the de facto SIGCHI email manager and part-time web cobbler until 2002.
CHCCS/SCDHM: The Canadian Human Computer Communications Society honoured me with a service award in 2007.

I have a longstanding interest in methodology and technical education in the research areas listed above, and I have helped develop artifacts to promote it.

Information Resources

HCI Bibliography is a non-profit multinational volunteer effort to provide a free comprehensive online bibliography of the field of Human-Computer Interaction electronically worldwide to students, researchers, and developers.
- Ten Year Retrospective
- Why Offer a Free Web Service?
Internet Resources in the HCI Bibliography are used to generate several indexes on human-computer interaction:
- HCI-Sites (the HCI Virtual Library)
- Publications
- Education
- Intercultural / internationalization / localization
- Kids and Computers
- Accessibility / Disabilities (the SIGCAPH link page)
Suggested Readings in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), User Interface (UI) Development, & Human Factors (HF) provide most major references people ask for on the Internet.

Empirical Methods

HCI Educational Materials

HCI Education Survey sponsored by ACM SIGCHI describes HCI faculty and courses at over 75 programs
Curricula in HCI by the ACM SIGCHI Curriculum Development Group provides curricular recommendations for courses and programs in HCI.
Curriculum Module on User Interface Development, written for the Software Engineering Institute at Carnegie-Mellon University, helps educators prepare courses in HCI. Its bibliography motivated the creation of The HCI Bibliography.
