SUMMARY:iForum: Andrea Forte
ORGANIZER;CN=bill:mailto:bill
DESCRIPTION:TITLE Learning in Public:
Information Literacy and New Social Media\n\nABSTRACT\nIs Wikipedia a
learning environment? In 2001\, Wikipedia was launched on the premise
that everyone on the Internet working together could assemble an
encyclopedia of all human knowledge. In order to manage article
production\, Wikipedians engage in conversations about how they know what
they know\, how well accepted different theories and ideas are\,\nwhat
constitutes a reliable information source\, and how an article should be
written to educate readers. From an information literacy perspective\,
this is precisely the kind of reflective discussion that is desired in
public discourse. For my dissertation work\, I built specialized wiki
tools to support writing activities in high school classrooms.\n\nIn this
talk\, I will explore knowledge-related practice on wikis and present
findings from four years of empirical research with wikis in both formal
and informal learning contexts. In addition to my work on Wikipedia\, I
have conducted iterative cycles of design and research in high school
science classes where she examined how writing on a public wiki brings
about opportunities for reflection and learning. I suggest that
user-generated content represents not only new forms of information that
consumers must learn to evaluate\, but also creates unique learning
opportunities as young people engage more actively in the cycle of public
information production and consumption.\n\nBIO Andrea Forte is a Ph.D.
candidate in Human-Centered Computing in the School of Interactive
Computing at Georgia Tech. Her research examines how social technologies
support learning and information sharing. Andrea's dissertation work is
the NSF-sponsored project Science Online\, a specially designed wiki
where high school students write about science to build a public
information resource. She holds an MLIS from University of Texas at
Austin and has published in the areas of learning sciences\, computer
science education\, CSCW\, and online communities.

ORGANIZER;CN=bill:mailto:bill
DESCRIPTION:Title:
From Contests to Clubs:
The Role of Records and Recordkeeping in the Early Years of the 4-H
Movement\n\nAbstract:
In the LIS community\, researchers have looked at how people engage with
and process texts in the activity of reading\, as well as the role and
meaning of texts in people?s lives. Although similar in conception\, the
focus of my research is on what has been called the extension or flip
side of reading as a literacy practice - the act of writing and
recording. My study of writing and recording is focused on everyday
texts\, with an emphasis on what it means to be literate in the school
and the workplace\, and an associated study of the texts and genres of
those domains. In this talk I investigate a particular historical context
(the early decades of the 4-H movement) in which children and young
adults were taught how to create and use everyday documents\, with a
particular focus on the reports and record books that 4-H members created
as part of their club activities. My work looks at written literacy as a
social activity and in the process I uncover the literacy practices that
were in place in this specific domain\, I examine the purposes and whose
purposes these literacies served\, and I investigate what it meant for a
young person to be literate in this particular time and context. \n\nBio:

SUMMARY:iForum: Bei Yu
ORGANIZER;CN=bill:mailto:bill
DESCRIPTION:Title:
Towards automatic polarity classification of mass opinion\n\nAbstract:
The increasing popularity of internet media is changing the way people
exchange opinions on social issues. To embrace this change\,
governments\, companies\, and social scientists are demanding effective
document analysis tools to search and classify opinions from various
stakeholders and the general public. Opinion mining has become an
important component in the solutions for e-democracy and business
intelligence. \n \nA central problem in opinion mining is sentiment
classification\, which aims to identify the polarity of opinions in
texts. Traditional topical text categorization techniques have been
utilized to classify opinions in customer reviews with high accuracy.
Extending similar techniques to opinion classification in broader
contexts like political debate\, however\, resulted in much lower
accuracy. Why is it hard to identify the polarity of political opinions?
How can we improve current techniques for better accuracy? \n\nIn this
talk\, I will firstly present the analysis of the characteristics of
political opinion expressions\, which not only distinguish the task of
political opinion classification from review classification\, but also
shed light on new approaches to incorporate these characteristics. I will
then describe a unified approach of predicting the opinions on different
political issues through the estimation of the opinion holders'
ideological positions or party affiliations.\n\nBio:
Bei Yu received her PhD from the Graduate School of Library and
Information Science at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
She is currently a postdoctoral researcher at the Kellogg School of
Management at Northwestern University. Her primary research interest is
in text mining and its applications in social sciences and humanities.
She is particularly interested in developing automatic methods to
categorize text documents according to non-topical information like
emotions and opinions.

ORGANIZER;CN=bill:mailto:bill
DESCRIPTION:Title:
"Helpfulness" in Online Communities:
A Measure of Message Quality\n\nAbstract:
Online communities displaying textual postings require measures to combat
information overload. One popular approach is to ask participants
whether or not messages are helpful in order to then guide others to
interesting content. Adopting a well-established framework for assessing
data quality\, I examine the nature of "helpfulness." In particular\, I
analyze a set of consumer product reviews from Amazon.com\, deriving 22
measures quantifying their textual properties\, authors' reputations and
product characteristics. A confirmatory factor analysis reveals five
underlying quality dimensions representing reviewers' reputations in the
community\, the topical relevancy of the reviews\, the ease of
understanding them\, their believability and objectivity. A correlation
and regression analysis confirms that these dimensions are related to the
helpfulness scores assigned by community participants. However\, it also
uncovers a strong relationship between the chronological ordering of
reviews and helpfulness\, which both community participants and designers
should keep in mind when using this method of social navigation.\n\nBio:
Jahna Otterbacher received her PhD from the University of Michigan's
School of Information. She is currently a visiting faculty member in

focuses on informing the design of systems for the effective organization
of unstructured textual information\, particularly in Web-based contexts.
She is especially interested in how these technologies can better enable
people to find useful content in situations where information is dynamic
in nature\, and where the provenance\, and thus quality\, of information
may be difficult to gauge.

the videos and standard metadata aw well as the context defined by usage
patterns is described and summaries for topics such as the 2008 U.S.
Presidential campaign will be discussed. Recommendations for curators who
wish to gather such data to enrich their collections and implications of
these efforts are also discussed.\n\nBio:

ORGANIZER;CN=bill:mailto:bill
DESCRIPTION:Title Experiences in Deploying Public Metadata Analysis
Tools\n\nAbstract:
Current institutional repository software provides few tools to help
metadata librarians understand and analyse their collections. In this
talk I will discuss two metadata analysis tools:
the MAT tool from the New Zealand Digital Library Project at Waikato and
the KRIS tool from the National Library of New Zealand. MAT is a public
on-demand analyser that uses heuristics and visualisations to aid in
metadata assessment. KRIS is part of a national discovery service for
research held in institutional repositories and is based around agreed
metadata guidelines. Experiences in building and deploying these tools
provide a checklist of requirements for future metadata tool
provision.\n\nBio:

DESCRIPTION:Title:
Meta-Design and Social Creativity:
Frameworks for Understanding and Fostering Cultures of
Participation\n\nAbstract:
The shift from consumer cultures grounded in an industrialized
information economy (specialized in producing finished goods to be
consumed passively) to cultures of participation in a networked
information economy (in which all people are provided with the means to
participate actively in personally meaningful problems) represents unique
and fundamental opportunities and challenges for research in
human-centered computing. Our research in the Center for LifeLong
Learning & Design (L3D) explores theoretical foundations and designs and
assesses socio-technical environments for this transformation. We have
explored several major frameworks over the last decade including:\no
meta-design\, focused on "design for designers"\, and aimed at defining
and creating social and technical infrastructures in which new forms of
collaborative design can take place by allowing users to become
co-designers and co-developers\;
and\no social creativity\, focused on transcending the individual human
mind by exploiting transdisciplinary collaboration and diversity. The
presentation will illustrate these objectives and frameworks with
specific examples and articulate their relevance for understanding and
fostering cultures of participation.\n\nBio:

SUMMARY:2009 John Schneider Distinguished Lecture: Allen Renear
ORGANIZER;CN=bill:mailto:bill
DESCRIPTION:Title:
Refactoring FRBR:
Towards a General Ontology of Cultural Objects\n\nAbstract:
IFLA's influential Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records
(FRBR) may be taken as a plausible empirically grounded ontology of
cultural objects. I'll argue\, applying ontology design recommendations
proposed by N. Guarino\nand C. Welty\, that while FRBR may be on the
right track it needs to be "refactored"\, at least if taken as a general
ontology. Specifically I'll show that the four Group 1 entity types are
roles\, not types and then sketch a refactored FRBR where the
non-bibliographic entities that are genuine types take on bibliographic
roles in certain social circumstances. The resulting\nview of
bibliographic entities\, that they are not kinds of things\, but roles
that certain kinds of things have in particular social contexts\, is
consistent with John Searle's notion of a cascade of social facts
established through collective intentionality. This revision is confirmed
by its contribution to the analysis of two previously identified
puzzles\, one regarding the\nontological status of an XML Document\, the
other the distinction between authorial and editorial markup. Although
this may be considered a somewhat\ntheoretical exercise in conceptual
foundations I believe it also contributes to a general framework for data
curation and digital preservation. [Based on collaborative work with Dave
Dubin].\n\nAllen Renear is the Associate Dean for Research and an
Associate Professor in the Graduate School of Library and Information
Science at the University of\nIllinois at Urbana-Champaign\, where he
teaches courses and conducts research in information modeling and digital
publishing. His current research focuses on applications of formal
ontology to information systems. Prior to joining GSLIS Renear was
Director of the Brown University Scholarly Technology Group. He served on
the first Advisory Board of the Text Encoding Initiative and as chair of

SUMMARY:Lecture by Juan Gilbert
ORGANIZER;CN=bill:mailto:bill
DESCRIPTION:TITLE Innovations in Human Centered Computing:
Solving Problems by Integrating People\, Technology and Policy\nABSTRACT
We are facing multifaceted problems in the 21st century that require
human centered computing solutions. Human centered computing is an
emerging\, interdisciplinary field broadly concerned with computing and
computational artifacts as they relate to the human condition. In this
talk\, Dr. Gilbert will discuss 2 human centered computing research
projects aimed at addressing major societal problems\;
electronic voting and affirmative action. Prime III is a multimodal
electronic voting system research project. It allows people to vote using
voice and/or touch. Individuals that can't read\, see\, hear or those
with physical disabilities\, e.g. no arms\, can all privately and
independently vote using this multimodal interface. This presentation
will give a demonstration of the Prime III multimodal interface and
describe findings from usabilities studies\, mock elections and
organization elections. Applications Quest is a data mining tool
developed by Dr. Gilbert to address affirmative action. Specifically\,
Applications Quest provides a means for obtaining holistic diversity
without giving racial preference in compliance with the 2003 University
of Michigan U.S. Supreme Court decisions on the use of race in
admissions. Both of these research projects have national implications
and have not gone unnoticed by the U.S. Congress\, State and local
governments\, institutions of higher learning\, private companies and
others.\nBIO Dr. Juan E. Gilbert is the T-SYS Distinguished Associate
Professor in the Computer Science and Software Engineering Department and
a Fellow in the Center for Governmental Services at Auburn University
where he directs the Human-Centered Computing (HCC) Lab. Dr. Gilbert has
research projects in spoken language systems\, advanced learning
technologies\, usability and accessibility\, Ethnocomputing (Culturally
Relevant Computing) and databases/data mining. He has published more than
70 articles\, given more than 100 talks and obtained more than $4 million
dollars in research funding in his eight years at Auburn University. In
2002\, Dr. Gilbert was named one of the nation's top African-American
Scholars by Diverse Issues in Higher Education. He was recently named a
national role model by Minority Access Inc. At Auburn University\, Dr.
Gilbert has been honored with the Auburn University Alumni Engineering
Council Junior Faculty Research Award\, Auburn University Alumni
Outstanding Minority Achievement Award and the Auburn University
Distinguished Diversity Researcher Award. He is also a National Associate
of the National Research Council of the National Academies\, an ACM
Distinguished Speaker and a Senior Member of the IEEE Computer Society.
Recently\, Dr. Gilbert was named a Modern-Day Technology Leader by the
Black Engineer of the Year Award Conference\, the Pioneer of the Year by
the National Society of Black Engineers and he received the Black Data
Processing Association (BDPA) Epsilon Award for Outstanding Technical
Contribution. Dr. Gilbert recently testified before the Congress on the
Bipartisan Electronic Voting Reform Act of 2008 for his innovative work
in electronic voting. In 2006\, Dr. Gilbert was honored with a mural
painting in New York City by City Year New York\, a non-profit
organization that unites a diverse group of 17 to 24 year-old young
people for a year of full-time\, rigorous community service\, leadership
development\, and civic engagement.

SUMMARY:I Forum Dr. Susan Roman's "Do summer reading programs really
work?"
ORGANIZER;CN=martin:mailto:martin
DESCRIPTION:Dominican University Graduate School of Library and
Information Science partnering with the Center for Summer Learning at
Baltimore's Johns Hopkins University has a three year research project
studying the impact that summer reading programs have on disadvantaged
third and fourth grade students.\n\nThis project\, titled "Do Public
Library Summer Reading Programs Impact Student Achievement?" is studying
whether summer reading programs offered through public libraries and
elementary school partnerships affect children's attitudes about reading
and whether these programs help students retain\, and possibly expand\,
their literacy skills over the summer is funded by a $290\,224 Institute
of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) National Leadership Grant.\nBecause
over 95 percent of public libraries in the United States offer summer
reading programs in their communities\, this research promises to be a
major contribution to both the education and library science fields.\n

The Architecture of an Information Discipline
\nAbstract:
Information is a rich field with a poor story. Despite the unprecedented
levels of data and information technology in our lives\, intellectual
fault-lines perpetuate divisions and splinter research and education
efforts. In the present talk I will consider a variety of conceptions
of the information field and argue for shifting our views of information
from a commodity model to an experiential perspective and in so doing
emphasize the centrality of appropriate theories of information as
process rather than outcome in human activities.

Classification vs Innovation on the Enterprise 2.0 Desktop:
Subliminal messages from the desktop metaphor\nAbstract:
In the world of digital records management\, the need for formalized
classification of records by records creators is ironically in conflict
with the kind of idiosyncratic arrangement and filing of materials
supported by software products designed to maximize creativity and
innovation by knowledge workers. Digital records management products
require that workers superimpose on their work practices a set of
requirements that from their perspective often seems outdated or
irrelevant. This has come to a head with the demands for Web 2.0
technologies to be implemented in so-called ?Enterprise 2.0? networked
working environments and has been recognized in some early responses from
records managers looking toward a hybrid classification environment. But
first records managers have to deal with the fact that the design and
affordances of the (recently) much-maligned desktop metaphor militates
against the disciplining of the record\, as it has since its inception.
In this presentation I will discuss both the records manager's problem
and the history and implications of the desktop metaphor and its evolving
manifestations.

SUMMARY:Climate Change Talk
ORGANIZER;CN=lecia:mailto:lecia
DESCRIPTION:Observations from the trenches:
What people say about climate change and what it means\n\nGlobal
warming? Climate change? Enhanced Greenhouse Effect? The Kool-Aid?
People use different kinds of words when talking about climate change.
Understanding specific elements of the dialogue can help communicators
frame a cogent response on the spot. How do global warming deniers talk
about climate change? What do people say when they are concerned but
confused? What do teachers say? The Cooperative Institute for
Environmental Sciences (CIRES) at University of Colorado\, Boulder does a
great deal of climate change and polar research. The CIRES Education and
Outreach group has worked in climate change science communications for
more than a decade. In the last year we have provided climate change
communications training for faculty\, research scientists\,
undergraduates\, environmental educators\, K-12 teachers\, concerned
citizens and communicators. This talk will discuss the reasons that
climate change communication is so complex\, the kinds of misconceptions
people have that make it more complex\, and the language used by people
who come from different perspectives. Susan Buhr holds a doctorate in
atmospheric chemistry\, has conducted outreach for thirteen years and has
directed the CIRES Education and Outreach group since 2001.

SUMMARY:Greg Newby presentation "Merging Information Retrieval Search
Results from Multiple Datasets"
ORGANIZER;CN=martin:mailto:martin
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:
Can we improve search results by merging ranked lists from\nindependent
datasets? While the prospect of searching only the\ndatasets best
matched to an information need is appealing\, there are\npractical
challenges in presenting a unified relevance-sorted set of\nresults to
the information seeker. This presentation will highlight a\nresearch
program to examine techniques for merging of search results\nacross
datasets. The conceptual basis and need for searching across\ndatasets
will be presented\, followed by discussion of the challenges\nof merging
results from multiple data sources\, each of which might\nutilize a
different internal method for ranking results. Experimental\ndistributed
systems based on Hadoop\, Globus Toolkit and Apache Tomcat\nwill be
described\, with live demonstrations of distributed
searching.\nExperiences from the annual Text REtrieval Conference (TREC)
have\nshown promise for automatic identification of suitable datasets
for\nsearch\, followed by relevance-ranked merging of results.\n\nBrief
biography:
Greg Newby received his Ph.D. in Information Transfer\nfrom the Syracuse
University School of Information Studies in 1993.\nHe then joined the
faculty of the Graduate School of Library and\nInformation Science at the
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign\,\nwith a joint appointment at
the National Center for Supercomputing\nApplications. In 1997\, he
became a faculty member at the University\nof North Carolina at Chapel
Hill's School of Information and Library\nScience. Since 2003 he has
been on the faculty at the University of\nAlaska Fairbanks\, first as a
researcher and later as the Chief\nScientist of the Arctic Region
Supercomputing Center. At ARSC\, Newby\nhas broad responsibility for the
scientific mission of the Center.\nHis research activities include
distributed information retrieval\,\nlarge-scale model coupling for
weather and climate\, and evaluation of\nnext-generation hardware for
high performance computing.\n\n\n

ORGANIZER;CN=bill:mailto:bill
DESCRIPTION:Title:
Transformational Technologies and IT Offshoring:
Making Implicit Knowledge Explicit\n\n(joint work with Paul Leonardi\,
Northwestern University)\n\nAbstract:
Studies have shown the knowledge transfer problems that arise when
communication and storage technologies are employed to accomplish work
across time and space. Much less is known about knowledge transfer
problems associated with transformational technologies\, which afford the
creation\, modification and manipulation of digital artifacts. Yet\,
these technologies play a critical role in offshoring by allowing the
distribution of work at the task level\, what we call task-based
offshoring. For example\, computer-aided engineering applications
transform input like physical dimensions\, location coordinates\, and
material properties into computational models that can be shared
electronically among engineers around the world as they work together on
analysis tasks. Digital artifacts created via transformational
technologies often embody implicit knowledge that must be correctly
interpreted to successfully act upon the artifacts. To explore what
problems might arise in interpreting this implicit knowledge across time
and space\, and how individuals might remedy these problems\, we studied
a firm that sent engineering tasks from home sites in Mexico and the U.S.
to an offshore site in India. Despite having proper formal education and
ample tool skills\, the Indian engineers had difficulty interpreting the
implicit knowledge embodied in artifacts sent to them from Mexico and the
U.S. To resolve and prevent the problems that subsequently arose\,
individuals from the home sites developed new work practices to transfer
occupational knowledge to the offshore site. I discuss three of those
practices in this talk:
defining requirements\, monitoring progress\, fixing returns\, routing
tasks strategically\, and filtering quality. The extent to which sending
engineers in our study were free from having to enact these new work
practices because on-site coordinators acted on their behalf predicted
their perceptions of the effectiveness of the offshoring arrangement\,
but Indian engineers preferred learning from sending engineers\, not
on-site coordinators. Our study contributes to theories of knowledge
transfer and has practical implications for managing task-based
offshoring arrangements.\n\nBio:

DESCRIPTION:Title:
Interacting with information-rich web spaces:
the construction of mental models\n\nAbstract:
In ILS\, mental models refer to users? internal conceptual
representations of information systems and other information related
phenomena. It is generally accepted that mental models help people
understand a system\, navigate through the system\, and predict the
system?s behavior in future instances. Mental models are dynamic and
evolving. However\, most current studies treat mental models as a static
construct\, focusing on describing components and characteristics of
mental models\, as well as mental models? impact on users? information
searching behavior. Little research has been done on the dynamic
processes of users constructing mental models to make sense of the
system. Knowledge about how mental models come into form during people?s
first encounter with a system could be a particularly rich source for
generating practical implications for system design\, user modeling\, and
user instruction. In this talk\, I will report my research on the ways in
which people construct their mental models of an information rich web
space\, MedlinePlus\, in a search session. You are able to view how
people?s mental models of the system change as a result of a
constructional interaction with the system. A new method of eliciting
mental models will also be presented. \n\nBio:
Yan Zhang is a Ph.D. candidate in the School of Information and Library
Science at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Her research
focuses on people?s mental models of web-based information retrieval (IR)
systems. She is particularly interested in designing methods and tools to
more efficiently transform the knowledge of mental models to user
modeling\, system design\, and user instruction. Yan?s dissertation
examines the ways in which people construct mental models of an
information-rich web space of consumer health information\, MedlinePlus\,
during a search session. \n

Icons:
Pictures or Logograms?\n\nAbstract:\nIn this paper I propose to use
neuroimaging methodology such as functional magnetic resonance imaging
(fMRI) to investigate a question that is interesting in HCI context:
do people read icons as pictures or as logographical words? My pilot
study suggested that the brain used the same semantic system underlying
language processing when the test participants were performing
decision-making tasks with pictograms and Chinese characters as visual
stimuli. It is plausible that people read icons as logograms instead of
pictures. My future dissertation work will focus on a more detailed
experiment that compares concreteness and abstractness of icons\,
pictures\, words and logograms with fMRI methods. I expect that my
findings can contribute to the ongoing development of neuroergonomics and
brain-computer interfaces that will measure and adapt to the user's brain
signals.

Creating Accelerated Discovery:
An I-School Educational Vision\n\nAbstract:
The term discovery\, as used herein\, applies to the successful outcome
of inquiry in which a significant personal\, professional or scholarly
breakthrough occurs\, and which is individually or socially acknowledged
as a key contribution to knowledge. Because discoveries culminate at
fixed points in time\, discoveries can serve as an outcome metric for
both inquirers and the information professionals who support inquiry.
Three models of the discovery process\, based on the author?s case
analysis of mathematical and scientific discoveries\, are first
presented\, with suggested ways to accelerate discovery via each model.
Discussion then turns to an exploration of developing a super-ordinate
level of information behavior theory applicable to all fields and kinds
of inquiry to guide the development of various kinds of supportive
information architectures and information services. Last\, a 2020 AD
strategic vision for LIS and i-School education is proposed\, which
involves augmenting information behavior theory with a general science
and art of search\, research and accelerated discovery\, and passing on
such knowledge to students. As professional practitioners\, whether in
libraries\, archives\, museums or other organizations\, these alumni will
be on the front lines of facilitating their clientele?s accelerated
personal\, professional or scholarly discovery.

Stratified Information Experiences:
Understanding the Information Landscape of an Online Domestic Violence
Survivor Community\n\nAbstract:
Many people facing personal crises are unable or unwilling to bring their
problems into the open\, documented\, and complex maze of governmental
and social service aid agencies. Some of these people turn to the
Internet where they join ?small worlds? of people facing similar crises.
One substantial community of these silent\, personal crises is found in
the survivors of intimate partner violence (IPV). Survivors of all ages
are making increasing use of online communities\;
the next generation of survivors is growing up with the Internet at the
heart of their social communication norms. Understanding the complexities
of IPV information experiences as shared in online forums can help
generate more effective development of information support
structures.\n\nAn initial\, single-scholar study of a smaller\, older
segment of one community?s postings indicated a strong tendency among
these survivors to actively avoid agency aid and information. In this
study\, ten months of online discussion in this web-embedded\, bulletin
board community of IPV survivors were analyzed along two axis?:
relationship stage and information component. The stages were broad:
in a relationship\, leaving a relationship\, and left a relationship.
The information components were straightforward:
information needs\, barriers\, and resources. This talk presents the
first stage of that study (i.e.\, the intersections between relationship
stage and information component) and shares plans for the second stage of
the study.

"Using Surrogates to Represent New Media Artifacts:
World of Warcraft Case Study"\n\nAbstract:
Cultural institutions are beginning to recognize the importance of new
media artifacts\, and are considering collecting these materials.
However\, many kinds of new media artifacts\, videogames specifically\,
pose significant challenges to collecting institutions:
there are budgetary and legal constraints in collecting\, much less
providing access to that material\;
the artifacts are inherently complex from both a cultural and
technological perspective\;
and they are inherently ephemeral\, which defy traditional
representation\, preservation and collection development policies. In
order to maintain their appeal and significance\, cultural institutions
must create new collection development and access models to handle these
materials. This applies not only to videogames\, but to other kinds of
new media artifacts as well.\n\nWithin the new media community\, there is
some discussion recommending the collection of surrogates (like fan\,
industry and critically generated supplementary materials)\, in addition
to the primary artifact\, for the purpose of representation and future
access. This presentation will discuss the findings of a study conducted
to investigate the relative merits of different kinds of surrogates in
the representation of a specific MMORPG videogame: World of Warcraft.

DESCRIPTION:Title:
Beyond keywords:
finding information more accurately and easily using natural language
\n\nAbstract:
While keywords are both intuitive and effective for performing simple
navigational and informational web search (e.g. alaska
airlines\,\namerican revolution\, etc.)\, not all information needs are
so simple. For example\, on community question answering sites we find
posted queries like ?How have dramatic shifts in terrorists resulted in
an equally dramatic shift in terrorist organizations?? or "Are concerns
raised by the media justified about global warming and stem cell
research?" While natural\nlanguage (NL) allows users to easily express
such arbitrarily complicated queries\, search engines generally perform
poorly on them. On the other hand\, while a more effective keyword query
usually exists\, it is often difficult for users to find these
effective\nkeywords. Consequently\, supporting complex search remains an
open challenge.\n\nI adopt the approach of allowing people to naturally
express their questions and investigate how automatic retrieval for such
questions can be improved. To this end\, I describe a learning framework
for better\nestimating traditional term-based retrieval models by
building on recent ideas from ?learning to rank?. Given examples of
queries and their relevant documents\, the model learns to predict
effective term weights for NL queries\, and the feature space can be
incrementally extended from terms to modeling term interactions or\nother
latent representations. Empirical evaluation shows this better
estimation improves retrieval accuracy across several datasets.\n\nBio:

DESCRIPTION:Title:
Finding Ostriches in the Courtroom:
Enabling Linguistic Insight with Information Visualization\n\nInteractive
information visualization is an emerging and powerful technique for
understanding language. My research engages ethnographic methods to
understand how ad hoc visualizations play a role as ?external cognitive
aids? in data analysis. I hypothesize that closer coupling of
algorithmic data analysis and visualization design can provide greater
analytic power. In a synthesis of information visualization and natural
language processing\, my research approaches visualization of language
from several perspectives\, including visual text analytics incorporating
text mining\, information retrieval\, and visualization\, and explaining
computational linguistic models with visualization. In this talk I will
present an overview of several recent projects.\n\nIn Parallel Tag
Clouds\, I created an analysis system for discovering and exploring the
linguistic and content differences amongst the hundreds of thousands of
decisions of the US Courts of Appeals. Early feedback from legal
scholars has been quite positive. VisLink is a general visualization
system that allows for the reuse of the spatial dimension and the ability
to interactively link multiple visualizations in 3D space. With VisLink
we can make discoveries about links between seemingly unrelated data.
Finally\, I will demonstrate Bubble Sets\, a method for overlaying set
relations onto existing visualizations. Bubble Sets can be overlaid atop
custom-designed information layouts as well as general purpose
visualizations such as scatter plots.\n\nBio:

computational linguistics. He has strong ties to the Interactions Lab at
the University of Calgary and has twice interned at the IBM TJ Watson
Research Center\, most recently at the Visual Communication Lab. His
research involves investigating interactive visualizations of linguistic
data with a focus on convergence and coordination of multiple views of
data to provide enhanced insight. He has developed various methods for
generating\, reading\, and comparing visual summaries of text data\,
including e-books\, for everyday information seekers as well as data
analysts.

SUMMARY:Research Colloquium: Lecia Barker
ORGANIZER;CN=bill:mailto:bill
DESCRIPTION:Title:
Student and Faculty Perceptions of Undergraduate Research Experiences in
Computing\n\nAbstract:
Undergraduate research experiences are promoted and funded for their
potential in increasing students' likelihood of pursuing graduate
degrees\, increasing their confidence\, and expanding their awareness of
their discipline and career opportunities. These outcomes\, however\,
depend on the social\, organizational\, and intellectual conditions under
which students conduct research. Large-scale comparative studies suggest
that computer science undergraduate researchers participate in fewer of
the activities that lead to membership in a "culture of research." This
interview-based study illuminates the experiences of both undergraduates
and their faculty research mentors in computer science summer and
academic year programs. Twenty-five undergraduates and 31 faculty
mentors\, the majority women\, were interviewed. Their stories reveal
best and worst case research conditions for students\, the special
benefits to women who have experienced harassment in their classes\,
unconscious biases of faculty\, the wisdom of faculty who guide
undergraduates to successful research outcomes\, and faculty's
perceptions of benefits for themselves\, their departments\, and the
students they mentor. Dr. Barker will also discuss ways in which this
work\, which appears in ACM Transactions on Computing Education\, has
relevance in our School of Information.

ORGANIZER;CN=bill:mailto:bill
DESCRIPTION:Title:
The Academic Iceberg:
How Do We Move Beyond Traditional Academic Boundaries and Recognize New
Forms of Research Contributions?\n\nAbstract:
Recent developments in information technology (especially the emergence
of the World Wide Web and "Web 2.0" tools and technologies) have
contributed to a vastly expanded range of ways in which researchers can
make intellectual contributions to their fields. From an historical
perspective\, blogs\, wikis\, discussion forums\, electronic preprints\,
open notebooks\, shared data repositories\, open source software\, and
other technology-driven resources have appeared virtually overnight. The
traditional academic system that places a premium on single-author\,
peer-reviewed publications has\, not surprisingly\, yet to make much
progress in recognizing and placing value on these new forms of
contributions. This is a problem. The motivated researcher has an
expanding range of ways to share expertise\, feedback\, methods\, data\,
and tools that arguably can accelerate scientific progress but this
motivation (especially for the untenured) can be tempered by the
knowledge that time and energy devoted to these forms of intellectual
work will not be valued in the same way as traditional forms.\n\nIn this
talk\, I'll explore this issue by describing some of the emerging\,
non-traditional ways in which researchers are making intellectual
contributions and discuss both the importance of and challenges to
determining ways to assign value to them. In the first half of the talk
I'll describe two of my current projects as concrete examples that
illustrate the tension between traditional and non-traditional academic
work:
The Open Video Digital Library Toolkit and eMicrobes:
A Digital Library for Learning Infectious Diseases. In the second half of
the talk I'll share some simpler examples of non-traditional research
contributions\, acknowledge some of the challenges in placing value on
these contributions\, and seek thoughts from the audience on this topic.\n

DESCRIPTION:Secret Sauce and Snake Oil:
Net Work at a Search Marketing Company\n\nSearch engine optimization
(SEO) has a bad reputation as "snake oil":
the work of shysters and frauds. But at one search marketing company\,
this work is rigorous and complex\, and the company works hard to build
its positive reputation with clients. Drawing on various bodies of
network theories and network-related work (Castells\;
Drucker\;
Arquilla and Ronfeldt\;
Latour)\, I examine how this company's workers adapt to an ever-changing
set of contingencies through an agile networked organization\,
systematize their work\, analyze their clients' audiences\, and build
trust with their clients. I conclude by pointing to implications for
theorizing this sort of work.\n\nBio:

ORGANIZER;CN=bill:mailto:bill
DESCRIPTION:Title:
Student interpretations of argumentative discussions in science
class\n\nAbstract:
Scientific argumentation creates opportunities for students to construct
their own understandings of important science ideas by actively
participating in class discussions\, rather than receiving their
teacher?s knowledge. It is therefore increasingly viewed as key to
student learning in science classes. However\, argumentation rarely
occurs in science classes. The literature has identified two key
challenges to engaging students in this complex practice:
1) traditional classroom activities often inhibit the social discourse of
critically attending to\, and evaluating alternative understandings and
2) it can be difficult for students to revise their own ideas during
argumentative discussions. There exists a general consensus in science
education that these challenges emerge out of students? naďve epistemologies
of science. For example\, researchers have found that students typically
view science as a static body of facts that are disconnected from their
everyday experiences and common sense. This belief makes discussions in
which students are asked to evaluate one another?s ideas and to
collaborate to revise those ideas nonsensical:
if science is a set of disembodied facts then the students? job is to
memorize rather than construct that information.\n\nIn this talk\, I
present an alternative explanation for the struggles associated with
scientific argumentation. Namely\, students do not interpret
argumentative discussions as opportunities to engage with one another?s
ideas or to revise their own ideas. I support this conclusion by first
demonstrating the range of ways that students can interpret argumentative
discussions and second presenting a micro-analysis of one class in which
I examine students? understandings of the argumentative discussion and
the factors that influence that understanding.\n\nBio:
Leema Berland is an assistant professor of science education at the
University of Texas in Austin. She earned a Ph.D. in the Learning
Sciences from Northwestern University in 2008 and was a doctoral fellow
with the NSF funded Center for Curriculum Materials in Science
(2003-2008). In addition\, her work earned the best paper award at the
National Association of Research in Science Teaching conference in 2006.
Leema is broadly interested in facilitating and studying students as
they learn science by engaging in the discourse practice of scientific
argumentation. In this work\, she focuses on understanding how students
interpret the argumentative discussions\, how those interpretations
influence their participation in the discourse\, and why they interpret
it in the ways that they do. Each of these questions is designed to
better understand the dynamics of how and why students are able (or
unable) to productively engage in argumentative discourse.

LEGITIMACY OF AN INTERNET SURVEY AMONG MIDLIFE WOMEN.\n\nAbstract:
Despite an increasing number of Internet studies\, very little is still
known about the issues in using this new medium of research. Legitimacy
of Internet research\, furthermore\, has rarely been discussed. The
purpose of this presentation is to describe legitimacy issues identified
in an Internet survey study among a specific population\, online midlife
women\, and to provide future directions for Internet research. First\,
legitimacy of research in general is concisely discussed. Next\, the
study that is the basis for this presentation is described. Then\, the
method used to identify the legitimacy issues is presented\, and
finally\, legitimacy issues are discussed. Based on these issues\,
suggestions for future Internet research are made.\n\nDr. Im is Professor

ORGANIZER;CN=bill:mailto:bill
DESCRIPTION:Title:
Device-dependent Information Presentation\n\nAbstract:
The proliferation of mobile devices on one hand and large-screen\,
wall-sized displays on the other has resulted in a significant diversity
in the infrastructure for presenting content. Advances in the
manufacturing of OLED-based printable\, customizable displays\, will only
serve to diversify further the characteristics of our computing devices.
How will this infrastructure present information content effectively\,
much of which is optimized for rendering on desktop or laptop computers?
My dissertation work addresses the issues in adapting content to suit the
characteristics of the devices that render it. Understanding the
essential elements of information forms is critical for developing
device-specific adaptations. In this talk\, I will describe the results
of a study I conducted to understand the characteristics of images and
discuss a future study to explore the characteristics of textual
documents.

SUMMARY:Brown Bag Reader's Theater Presentation:
Library Spirit! The Library School Experience and Early Professional Work
During Progressive Era Texas and Illinois
ORGANIZER;CN=bill:mailto:bill
DESCRIPTION:Library Spirit! The Library School Experience and Early
Professional Work During Progressive Era Texas and
Illinois\n\nAbstract\n\nIn the late 19th century\, librarians received
training through apprenticeship programs within libraries or through
completed organized programs taught in an academic setting. This reader's
theatre performance presents a portrait of the library education
experiences and early professional work of individuals who attended two
formal librarian education programs:
the Illinois Library School and the Library Training Class at the
University of Texas.\n\nIn 1897\, the four-year-old Department of Library
Economy at Armour Institute in Chicago was transferred to the University
of Illinois and became known as the Illinois Library School. Katharine
Lucinda Sharp directed the School during its first decade\, resigning in
1907 to return to New York as vice-president of Melvil Dewey's Lake
Placid Club. Albert S. Wilson succeeded Sharp as director from 1907 to
1909. He was succeeded by Phineas L. Windsor\, who served as director to
1940. Prior to this time\, Windsor was employed at the University of
Texas as its library director where he inherited the Library Training
Class established by his predecessor\, Benjamin Wyche. In 1900\, the
University started a two-semester long Library Training Class. The class
was initiated under pressure from the Texas Federation of Women's Clubs
and in response to the need to staff newly established public
libraries.\n\nThis four-part reader's theatre presentation is developed
from eye-witness accounts documented in the letters from students\,
faculty\, and employers and the journals Illinois students kept during
their senior year field experiences. Topics covered include curricula\,
field experiences\, and job placement.
