symposium is designed to maximize the exchange of information and ideas among
the participants. To do so, the symposium consists of short (15-minute)
presentations followed by 15-minute group discussions. The objective is to
share ideas and seek opportunities to collaborate on or expand research that
examines communicating complex information in different contexts. In essence,
the Symposium brings together teachers, practitioners, and scholars to address
the over-arching questions of: <i>(1) How
can individuals collaborate to devise new approaches to the design and
evaluation of complex information systems? and (2) How can individuals work
together to define what is meant by usability/user experience and what
constitutes usable information in complex systems?</i> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0.5in 0.0001pt;line-height:normal;border:none;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:"Gill Sans MT",sans-serif;color:black"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0.5in 0.0001pt;line-height:normal;border:none;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:"Gill Sans MT",sans-serif;color:black">In addition to the
