Workshop Madness

These brief presentations will help acquaint participants to each other's papers. There will be no discussion between presentations, but don't worry, discussions will happen during the breaks and group sessions.

  • 3 minutes each. Strict time limit.
  • Options for presentations
    • PowerPoint slides: Please send me your slides a day before the workshop or bring a thumb drive and we'll upload the file to the presentation laptop.
    • Speak your presentation: You don't have to bring slides. You may give handouts along with your spoken presentation.

Breakout Session I

Participants with similar interests will discuss their projects together. Criteria for similar interests are: same domain (e.g., health, communication), same stage of personal informatics (e.g., collection, reflection), or similar technologies (e.g., mobile phone, data mining). Groups will discuss similarities and differences between the group members' projects, share experiences developing systems and conducting studies, and identify areas for further exploration.
