DESCRIPTION:Join us for a talk on Human-Information Interaction (HII) in ad
 aptive educational technologies with guest speaker Dr. Emmanuel Blanchard.
  Dr. Blanchard is Assistant Professor\, Dept. of Architecture\, Design\, &
  Media Technology\, Aalberg University\, Denmark.  Using examples of his o
 wn research projects\, Dr. Blanchard will be discussing some of the ways H
 II is employed in this field\, from the digitizing of expertise and the de
 velopment of serious games grounded on motivational principles\, to the cr
 eation of culturally-aware tutoring systems and similar culturally-aware i
 nformation technologies. He will conclude by providing additional reflecti
 ons on emerging research trends where HII-specific developments appear to 
 be extremely promising.  Human-Information Interaction (HII) is a construc
 t that has been  recently emerging. Taken from the perspective of communic
 ation and  information theories\, it can be understood as a spinoff of  Hu
 man-Computer Interaction. Its focus is on connections between human  being
 s and ambient information\, rather than on communications  characterized b
 y interaction with non-human agents. Despite the novelty  of this research
  field\, scholars have indeed been dealing with HII for  years without nam
 ing it.  Everyone is welcome.
