The Workshop on HCI Theses and Dissertations in HCI (WTD-IHC) is a forum dedicated to the presentation, discussion, and improvement of ongoing master’s and doctoral research in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI).<\/span><\/p>

It is a rich opportunity for the master’s\/doctoral students to receive notes, suggestions, observations, and criticisms about their research through <\/span>mentoring with experts in the field<\/b>. It is a space for joint reflection to enrich the work and contribute to its completion.<\/span><\/p>

This forum is intended for work in progress that can benefit from discussions, and there is still time for change.<\/span><\/p>

The main objectives of WTD-IHC are:<\/span><\/p>

  1. Promote the visibility and improvement of ongoing research;<\/span><\/li>
  2. Offer participants critiques of their research and future directions through a mentoring format with experienced researchers in the field;<\/span><\/li>
  3. Foster a cooperative community among <\/span>stricto sensu<\/span><\/i> postgraduate students and a collaborative spirit of research;<\/span><\/li>
  4. Provide an opportunity for students to interact with experienced researchers and experts from the HCI community.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

    \u00a0<\/p>

    In 2026, the WTD-IHC will have a dynamic format with moments focused on individual or collective mentoring, discussion, and evaluation.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Instructions for Submission<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

    Submissions will be analyzed considering the most significant potential for contributions to their improvement through participation in the WTD-IHC. The selected works will be those that are at least in intermediate stages of development and evolution; that is, they already have some defined aspects, but still present conditions for possible redirections.<\/span><\/p>

    Very early, completed, or near-complete research is outside the workshop’s scope.<\/b><\/p>

    Work can be submitted to WTD-IHC even if another version of the research has been submitted to another IHC 2026 track (for example, research articles and articles on innovative ideas and emerging results in HCI), considering that the focus submission to the workshop must be on the <\/span>project\/design of the research in progress<\/b>, not on its results, as in other tracks. Submissions in Portuguese or English will be accepted.<\/span><\/p>

    Authors must submit an extended abstract of up to 5 pages (including figures, tables, diagrams, bibliography, and annexes) containing:<\/span><\/p>
