点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project presents a workshop for approximately 40 CS educators interested in incorporating Human-computer Interaction (HCI) into undergraduate CS curricula. The workshop is a four-day event with follow-up reflection meetings at SIGCSE 2004 and 2005.This workshop (a) exposes a representative group of CS educators to significant HCI issues, educational approaches, and classroom experiences; (b) disseminates implementations of the HCI core requirements in the ACM/IEEE Computing Curricula 2001; (c) facilitates opportunities for networking and team-building among CS educators; and (d) begins to address the weak HCI preparation among CS graduates in the US. The follow-up meetings will help strengthen connections among members of this community by reflecting on new issues, approaches, experiences, what has worked, and what hasn't.
