The Tutorials program at conferences such as CHI and CSCW was once very popular. However, this has changed over the past few years. Attendance has plummeted, and it's no longer clear that there is a sufficient audience for the current Tutorials program. In response to this, fundamental changes are being considered. Now is your chance to weigh in.
Lower cost More relevant and interesting topics Scheduling tutorials during the conference instead of beforehand More confidence in the quality/content of the tutorial
Fewer tutorials, rotate topics more frequently "Lower-cost" tutorials with fewer frills (more like presentation-only workshops) Change to "in-conference tutorials" that are shorter (1 or 2 conference sessions) and part of the main conference program
