E-Research for Education

The 9th bi-annual International Conference on Naturalistic Decision Making
Covent Garden, London, UK
23-26 June, 2009
Jointly organized with the British Computer Society Interaction Specialist Group.

“NDM and Computers”

Naturalistic Decision Making (NDM) encapsulates the problems and challenges associated with making decisions in demanding situations. These decisions are often dependent on, or supported by, computing technology. The conference will focus on contemporary research on NDM where interaction with computing technology is an essential feature. It would be interesting to hear of studies where computers have been both a hindrance, and benefit, to NDM. We would like the conference to contribute to our understanding of how computers might ultimately improve NDM. **We also welcome reports of developments in NDM research, including: macro-cognition, cognitive task analysis, micro-macro relationships and alternative approaches.**
