[Imalka Nilma Perera]

(apologies for cross posting)

You are cordially invited to the IDG Seminar ...

****Please note that this weeks seminar is a panel discussion *****


PRESENTER: Steve Howard (Panel chair)

TITLE: Publishing in HCI: how to avoid publish AND perish...and take the
next step in a research career

FORMAT: Panel and discussion

VENUE: University of Melbourne, IDEA LAB, level 4, 111 Barry Street,
Carlton

DATE and TIME: Friday 29th August  2008, 3-4 pm
 

ABSTRACT:
What is a 'personal publications strategy'? How should that strategy change
across the course of a career (i.e. commencing PhD student, mature PhD
student, then post doc->mid->late career researchers? What is the right
balance between quality and quantity in publishing? What is 'ERA' and why
should we care? Do I really have to worry about impact factors, citation
counts and journal/conference tiers?

If you worry about any of these things, or anything to do with publishing in
HCI, then this is the seminar for you! Run as a panel, we'll allow plenty of
time for you to ask your own questions...so come armed as there's a risk we
might actually answer a few of them!
