Call for Papers
We invite three types of paper submissions:
- Research Paper: Describe novel research on or about HCI education.
- Provocation/Unsolved Challenge: Present a new, controversial, inspiring, unsolved, or thought-provoking perspective on or about HCI education.
- Teachable Moment: Describe or demonstrate a useful or innovative teaching method, curricular approach, or other pedagogical tool for HCI educators.
Accepted papers will be archived in the ACM Digital Library through ACM’s International Conference Proceedings Series (ICPS).

Preparing Your Submission
Please follow the guidelines below when preparing your paper for submission:
Paper Length
While there is no page limit for paper submissions, we expect research papers to be roughly 5,000-8,000 words and provocations/unsolved challenges and teachable moments to be roughly 3,000-6,000 words. However, these are just general guidelines; authors are encouraged to submit papers with a length proportional to their expected contribution(s). Submissions under 2,000 words or over 10,000 words are likely to be rejected.
Formatting and Paper Templates
Authors should prepare a manuscript using the ACM Master Article Submission template, available for Microsoft Word and LaTeX. Submissions may also be prepared in Overleaf using the ACM Conference Proceedings Primary Article template.
Note that there is a short window between acceptance notifications and papers uploaded to TAPS for processing by the ACM Digital Library. Therefore, authors should ensure their papers are correctly formatted before submission. Members of the organizing committee can help with a limited set of issues, but we ask authors to familiarize themselves with the guidance provided by ACM before requesting assistance.
Anonymization Policy
Paper submissions should be anonymized according to the CHI anonymization policy. Generally, this means removing author and institutional identities from the title and header areas of the paper and in the document’s metadata, ensuring no description makes authors’ names or institutional identities easy to identify, and omitting any identifying details from the acknowledgments section.
Submission Process
Papers must be submitted via educhi2024.hotcrp.com.
Selection Process
All submissions will go through a rigorous, double-blind peer review process with three primary review criteria: the paper’s overall quality, its originality and novelty to the HCI education community, and its potential to engage attendees in thoughtful discussions.
The Technical Program Chairs will oversee the review process, including establishing a program committee (PC) of past EduCHI authors and those with expertise in the topic, selecting a minimum of three knowledgeable reviewers for each paper (at least one of which will be a member of the PC), and forming an initial recommendation for conditional paper acceptance or rejection based on the resulting reviews at a formal committee meeting with PC members
Upon Acceptance of Your Paper
Following a conditional acceptance, participants will be asked to prepare the final camera-ready version of their submission as well as a brief summary of changes and clarifications in response to reviewers’ feedback.
The TPCs will review the camera-ready versions and summaries of changes to approve and formally accept the paper.
Authors of formally accepted papers will also be given the option of creating a captioned pre-recorded presentation and other supplemental content about their submission (slides, video, etc.) to be published on the symposium website and distributed to attendees prior to the event.
At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the symposium.
