The 3rd Workshop on Child, Computer and Interaction WOCCI 2010 (www.wocci.org) will be held in Beijing, China, on November 11-12, 2010. T he Workshop is a satellite event of the Twelth International Conference on Multimodal Interfaces (ICMI), which is held this year jointly with the Workshop on Machine Learning and Multimodal Interaction ICMI-MLMI 2010 (http://www.acm.org/icmi/2010/index.html) that will take place in the same venue on November 8-10, 2010. This 2-day session follows the first two of the WOCCI series which were held in Crete in October 2008 and Boston in November 2009, respectively. Two page abstract submission: July 1, 2010 Notification of acceptance: July 20, 2010 Final paper (4-8 pages) submission and authors' registration: August 20, 2010 The Workshop aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners from universities and industry working in all aspects of multimodal child-machine interaction with particular emphasis on, but not limited to, speech interactive interfaces. Children are special both at the acoustic/linguistic level but also at the interaction level. The Workshop provides a unique opportunity for bringing together different research communities to demonstrate various state-of-the-art components that can make up the next generation of child centred computer interaction. These technological advances are increasingly necessary in a world where education and health pose growing challenges to the core wellbeing of our societies. Noticeable examples are remedial treatments for children with or without disabilities, and first and second language learning. The Workshop should serve for presenting recent advancements in all core technologies for multimodal child-machine interaction as well as experimental systems and prototypes. |
