> (Apologies for cross-posting)

>

> "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.
