This year’s MexIHC conference allowed us to showcase some of the work carried out with our very talented students from the Universidad Tecnólogica de la Mixteca. Although I was not able to attend the conference myself, the feedback I received with regard to the students’ presentations was very encouraging. Daniel Martínez García presented a wizard of Oz (WoZ) framework for evaluating the Embodied Conversational Agent (ECA) Samuela. Victor Manuel Garcia Luna presented a strategy for integrating cross-cultural differences in the design of a GUI implementing Information Society Indicators (ISIs). The university was also represented by two teams in the student design competition who finished 1st and 3rd.
