CCI SIG: Interactive Childhood - Crossing Cultures and Continents.

Child Computer Interaction is a community within CHI that has been steadily growing. It hosts its own annual IDC conference and is a highly recognizable and vibrant contributor to the ACM CHI conference. In 2015, the CCI SIG aims to take advantage of the positioning of CHI in Seoul to consider how it might, as an academic community, best direct its work to broaden to different cultures of play, education and activity. The CCI2015 SIG will therefore seek to examine its own work by asking what cultural assumptions underpin its main theories and practices. The CCI SIG at CHI will mix together a set of 5-minute cameo presentations -- each examining a highly cited CCI paper -- with a world café approach and will develop solutions and priorities. The CCI SIG will be the natural meeting place for members of this community at CHI and will disseminate its discussion to the CCI and CHI communities through the production of visual and interactive materials at the CHI conference.
