Page Schemas#Creating a new Schema Page schemas is mostly a handy way to generate boilerplate templates and link them to semantic properties. A Form (using Page Forms is something that is an interface for filling in values for a template.

For an example of how this shakes out, see Category:Participant Template:Participant Form:Participant

• go to a `Category:CategoryName` page, creating it if it doesn't already exist.
• Click "Create schema" in top right
• If you want a form, check the "Form" box. it is possible to make a schema without a form. The schema just defines what pages will be generated, and the generated pages can be further edited afterwards (note that this might make them inconsistent with the schema)
• Click "add template" If you are only planning on having one template per category, name the template the same thing as the category.
• Add fields! Each field can have a corresponding form input (with a type, eg. a textbox, token input, date selector, etc.) and a semantic property.
• Once you're finished, save the schema
• Click "Generate pages" on the category page. Typically you want to uncheck any pages that are already bluelinks so you don't overwrite them. You might have to do the 'generate pages' step a few times, and it can take a few minutes, bc it's pretty buggy.

Workshop Submission

With what "frame" do you approach the workshop? (or identity)?

Researcher

What materials can you contribute to the workshop for consideration?

• Intelligent systems* e.g. search systems, natural language processing systems, phone and computer operating systems, web browsers, email system

• Intelligent systems, infact a constellation of many systems, organize/arrange and act as medium for information in our lived life contexts - everyday, work. etc. Increasingly research is showing that diverse user groups face issues forming conceptual models of how systems work, i.e. systems' operation may be black-box to them causing issues with information exchanges: e.g.s Older populations not understanding how systems like web accounts work, younger children not understanding how search systems retrieve information, populations of all ages not being able to make sense of algorithms in everyday life like advertisement, retrieval, recommendation.

• Why could that be ? **

How “interaction” is considered by Intelligent systems’, i.e. embedded models in the form of popular principles underlie the design of interactions with all such systems . e.g.1) Popular task/process conceptions : e.g. login sequences, web accounts, query/retrieval e.g.2) Typical symbologies (magnifying glass icon for search) and terminologies (e.g. “sign up, log in) e.g.3) e.g.4) Conceptual Models of interconnected systems assumed to be commonly known by users: Phone as an Operating System, Computers, Web, Web accounts (google account across gmail, youtube, OS etc.)commonly in development, popular principles are used - such as website layouts, search engine layouts etc.

• What is missing in this conception, if diverse user groups have been shown to not be able to gather complete system models?
• How can we re-imagine user-system interactions, by understanding sensemaking principles
