Subject:What can HCI and Interaction Design do to contribute in the
COVID-19 crisis?
Dear colleagues, I hope you and your loved ones are safe.
Based on discussions here at Aarhus University we have created a
shared document to aggregate examples of what we as researchers and
experts in HCI and Interaction Design can do to contribute in the
immediate COVID-19 crisis and in the phases that follow. We hope that
such a document can be of value in several ways.
1) Contributing in the immediate crisis: Makers 3D printing face
shields for healthcare workers and components for ventilators that are
out of stock, and peers in infovis creating interactive visualisations
and explorable explanations to help people understand the spread of
virus and the measures to contain and combat it, etc.
2) Contributing to what comes after the immediate crisis: CSCW
experts developing and improving systems to work remotely, Ubicomp and
Participatory Design colleagues collaborating to establish culturally
appropriate systems and measures for contact tracing, etc.
3)Learning from the crisis: Carrying out studies and experiments that
enable us to learn from this tragic and unique situation such as
understanding how different means and infrastructures of communication
influences individual and collective behaviour, how scientists use
shared digital resources to study the virus and develop therapies,
etc.
4) A resource for teaching: Many courses are now carried out under
very different circumstances than planned, and the document may
provide a resource for teachers and students to work on projects
pertaining to the crisis.
The document is very much a work in progress, so we invite you to
contribute, revise, comment, and add further resources.
