Schedule 2011

8:45 –  9:00 Opening remarks

9:00 – 10:00 Keynote: “Bringing HCI to the Federal Government”; Marti A. Hearst, School of Information, UC Berkeley

The current administration is transforming the way that U.S. federal agencies design and build information technology. One pillar of this plan is a new “customer”-centric focus. This talk will describe why it is difficult to bring modern IT practices to the federal government and what has happened in the last two years to help improve this situation, with a focus on the infusion of usability techniques. The talk will also describe how HCI researchers and practitioners can do their part to help.
