> 2nd Call For Participation

> CHI 2011 Workshop

> Gamification: Using Game Design Elements in Non-Gaming Contexts

> http://bit.ly/grn-chi2011

> ===============================================================

>

> "Gamification" is an informal umbrella term for the use of video  

> game elements in non-game systems to improve user experience (UX)  

> and user engagement. The recent introduction of ‘gamified’  

> applications such as Foursquare to large end-user audiences promises  

> new lines of inquiry and rich data sources for the many endeavors in  

> human-computer interaction (HCI) that have explored game-related  

> heuristics, design patterns and dynamics of motivating, positive  

> user experiences – endeavors as various as persuasive technology,  

> funology, incentive centered design, the social psychology of online  

> communities, motivational affordances, or game UX.

>

> The goal of this one-day workshop at CHI 2011 is to bring together  

> HCI researchers and practitioners from these diverse fields to take  

> the next step forward by building a shared picture of the current  

> state of approaches and findings pertinent to gamification, and to  

> identify synergies, key opportunities and questions for future  

> research.

>

> ===Submission details===

> We invite researchers from all theoretical and methodological  

> backgrounds to submit a 2-4 page position paper in the CHI extended  

> abstracts format on ongoing empirical work, (potentially summative)  

> accounts of existing approaches and findings, or work that might  

> otherwise elucidate the user experience, psychology, social dynamics  

> and design of information systems employing game elements via e-mail  

> to chi2011 (at) gamification-research.org.

>

> Note that at least one author of each accepted paper needs to  

> register for the workshop and for one or more days of the conference.
