IMPORTANT DATES:
August 30, 2015: Submissions deadline
September 4, 2015: Acceptance notification
October 4, 2015: Workshop

This workshop will facilitate intersections from user researchers with diverse epistemologies, as well as from both academia and the industry, in an interactive Design Jam activity to collaboratively design future-proof GUR tools. The immediate outcome of the workshop is twofold: to collectively establish state-of-the-art tool design guidelines, and to archive the papers and discussions, which will extend the conversations and relationships beyond the workshop. Moreover, the long-term outcome will be the start of a community that focuses on creating better tools to aid the study of player experiences.… read more. “Call: GUR Tool Design Jam: Designing Tools for Games User Research (at CHI PLAY 2015)”
