@bjkraal I'm glad I got to share my strong cheese board opinions with someone. While I'm familiar with the model, I'm looking forward to hear about what you've learned because these surveys seem really useful!

Presenting now @CHI_DownUnder in Mozilla Hubs, where posters become billboards.

What a brave new world! @CHI_DownUnder prepared for a virtual poster session in #MozillaHubs

Looking forward to presenting my #chi2020 poster about Perceptions of #AugmentedReality at @CHI_DownUnder later this week. Read the paper at https://t.co/8rKQksBw7u and participate in the ongoing #research at https://t.co/gX0QTRt7zV 🙂

@HCI_Education Definitely worth staying up til 4am, and excited for future discussions!

This is Bogey. He was pupset about the Olympics being postponed until he realized that's just more time to perfect his routine. 14/10

The shift to #WFH mostly means madly rearranging my home chaos to accommodate my work chaos. So far so good.

Sorry that I won't be able to attend my very first #CHI to present my LBW "Defining AR: Public Perceptions of an Evolving Landscape" with @LeighEllen_P but glad that this decision was made. Thanks to all at @sig_chi who have been working hard to manage this unexpected situation.

It is with a heavy heart that we need to tell you that we have decided to not hold #CHI2020 physically in Hawai’i:

I had such a great time in Freo while attending OzCHI this week. It's a long flight, but the food, wildlife, and scenery were well worth it! @ Fremantle, Western Australia https://t.co/oFcH8bDNJ8

Had a great time at Rottnest Island today. Some of the quokkas really know how to take a selfie! #quokkaselfies @ Rottnest Island, Western Australia https://t.co/GMNDbsEfR2

@GU_Sciences #booklaunch yesterday was great! @LeighEllen_P and I authored Chapter 13 - Engaging with #STEM Students: Successes and Challenges in #CourseDesign. We explore a case study of a multidisciplinary cohort for an #ICT course, utilising a number of #education platforms.

A big day but a successful one. Here's to two more years of AR and PD research!

[IDEA Lab @IDEALabGU]

Two of our researchers successfully completed their PhD confirmations today! Confirmation is an assessment piece about a year into the PhD program, which marks that the research is going well and should continue. Congratulations @Geko_X and @aaalexthompson!
