***************** CALL FOR PARTICIPATION ***************** SoHuman 2013 - 2nd International Workshop on Social Media for Crowdsourcing and Human Computation May 1, 2013, Paris at ACM Web Science 2013 collocated with ACM HyperText'13 & ACM CHI'13 & ACM ECRC'13 http://eipcm.org/sohuman2013 ***************** CALL FOR PARTICIPATION ***************** GOALS OF THE WORKSHOP ---------------------------------------- This workshop aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners from different disciplines to explore the challenges and opportunities of applying social media to designing novel applications of collective intelligence, with a special focus on crowdsourcing and human computation. By emphasizing practical challenges and experiences with real-world applications, the workshop will stimulate the discussion on best practices in this quickly growing field. Based on the successful experience of the previous workshop SoHuman 2012, this workshop will consider crowdsourcing and human computation in the broader context: as specific instantiations of collective intelligence and social computing on the web. The goal is to identify how experience gained from the design of crowdsourcing applications can inform the development of new approaches to collective intelligence, and vice versa: what lessons from the broader domain of collective intelligence can inform the design of new kinds of systems for crowdsourcing and human computation? The workshop program includes a keynote given by Michael Bernstein (Stanford HCI) on "Crowd-powered Systems" and 5 exciting papers on current issues and novel approaches in crowdsourcing and human computation (30% acceptance rate) followed by a discussion panel. The detailed program is available at: http://eipcm.org/sohuman2013 Attendance to the workshop is free of charge for anyone registered for either the ACM Web Science or Hypertext conference. Workshop-only registration is also possible (84€).
