General Description

Since AIS SIGHCI’s inception, HCI has become a common theme in major MIS conferences, as demonstrated by the successful HCI mini-tracks/tracks at the Americas Conferences on Information Systems in August and the HCI workshops held prior to the International Conferences on Information Systems in December each year. These meetings have yielded a number of special issues in top MIS and HCI journals, including International Journal of Human-Computer Studies, Journal of Association for Information Systems, Behaviour and Information Technology, and Journal of Management Information Systems.

These special issues represent AIS SIGHCI’s continued outreach efforts to establish dialogues, synergies, and connections with the HCI communities across various disciplines. Additional recent efforts of AIS SIGHCI include organizing two “HCI in MIS” sessions at the 2005 HCI International Conference and participating in the ‘User Experience’ development consortium at the CHI 2005 conference. Given the shared HCI interests, concerns, and goals among various disciplines, we believe that HCI interest groups from various disciplines need to carry out more dialogue exchanges with each other to share their multifaceted perspectives and facilitate cross-fertilization of ideas. We envision that the HCI field as a whole can benefit from such collaborations and dialogues, and establish greater synergies by working together. We hope these special issues will help to achieve the above goals by facilitating greater collaborations between SIGHCI and various international HCI communities.
