Dear PICS workshop participants,

We are just a few days away from the workshop!

The workshop web site is the place where we hope to collect all materials related to the workshop: http://groups.sims.berkeley.edu/pics/ At the moment we encourage you to review the position papers: http://groups.sims.berkeley.edu/pics/papers.html.

The agenda for the workshop will be:
9:00 -10:30 Session 1: Agenda review, short introduction presentations, getting familiar with ZoneTag phone app
10:30-11:00 Break
11:00 - 12:30 Session 2: Field exercise in teams

2:00-3:30 Session 3: Design exercise (paper prototyping) and 3-5min presentations
3:30-4:00 Break
4:00-5:30 Session 4: Group discussion

As a participant you are expected to:
1. Tell us about yourself and your work in the morning session (Session 1). There will be 4-5min for each paper. Power point slides are fine, but we also encourage other ways of presenting your work.

2. Bring your creativity and playfulness and be an active participant in the exercises we have prepared for you.

3. Take a lead in the group discussion in the last session, share your thoughts, insights and research questions you would like this community to work on.

4. Stay in touch after the workshop by contributing to the shared blog with new ideas, papers and pointers.

We are looking forward to seeing everyone on Monday!

Regards,
The PICS organizers
