Tutorials provide participants with new insights, knowledge  and
skills across a broad range of HCI concerns. Previous tutorial topics
have  included: user interface development, HCI theories, requirements
analysis  techniques, usability evaluation, design methodologies, work
analysis and  modelling, emerging technologies and many other relevant
areas.

Tutorial participants include user interface designers and users,
software developers,  project managers, HCI researchers and teachers,
and professionals in other areas  interested in understanding how HCI
relates to their lives.

The tutorial proposal should specify the background  knowledge and
skills required of participants. It should also specify the level  of
the tutorial as introductory, intermediate or advanced. A tutorial may
take  either half a day or a full day.

Tutorial proposals will be evaluated on the quality of the  proposal,
basis of their benefits to participants and their fit within the
overall tutorials programme. Factors to be considered include
relevance,  timeliness and audience appeal; suitability for
presentation in a half-day or full day tutorial; use of appropriate
presentation methods and exercises; and  past experience and
qualifications of the instructors.

If the tutorial has been given previously, the proposal  should
indicate where the tutorial has been given and how it will be modified
 for HCI 2008. Tutorial presenters are expected to attend the
conference.

Note that, if accepted, presenter(s)   will be asked to provide a
2-page description of their tutorial using the template for
publication in the conference proceedings
(http://www.cms.livjm.ac.uk/hci2008/documents/HCI_2008_Paper_Template.doc)

REMUNERATION

There is a single fee (full-day £500,  half-day £250) available for
each presented tutorial and an additional fee  (full-day £30, half-day
£15) for each participant over an initial 6 registered  participants
for the tutorial.
This fee may  either be used to offset the delegate fee for the main
conference for the  presenter(s), or be paid on receipt of an invoice.
If paid, the recipient is  responsible for all taxes. The tutorial
notes for duplication must be supplied  no later than 6 weeks before
the conference. If a tutorial does not attract  sufficient attendees
by 4 weeks before it is due to be presented, then the  conference
committee may cancel it, in which case a fee of £100 for a full-day
tutorial and £50 for a half-day will be paid for the preparation of
the notes.
