Every year CHI submissions from people unfamiliar with the HCI community
are rejected because authors do not understand how to effectively
communicate to the HCI community what they have done. We do not want to
miss these interesting viewpoints. If you are unsure of how to write a good
CHI submission, you may ask for a mentor. A mentor is a person who helps
you learn something unfamiliar through a personal one-on-one relationship.
Mentors are volunteers familiar with successful submissions in the area you
plan to submit to.
If you want to ask for a mentor we will need to hear from you no later than three months before the submission deadline for your submission category (e.g., the deadline for most submissions is 12 September 1997, therefore the deadline for requesting a mentor for these submissions is 12 June 1997). We highly recommend that you request a mentor even earlier; a mentor will be most useful to you if his or her feedback can influence the way you focus your work, not just the way you write it up for the conference. Mentors are available for education, entertainment and health care application domain submissions, late-breaking results, papers (including design briefings), panels and student posters. |
