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 fifth annual pre-ICIS HCI/MIS research workshop prior to ICIS 2006 in Milwaukee, WI on Saturday, December 9, 2006.

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

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://jais.isworld.org.
