SEESHOP 1 Conference (August 2007)
SEESHOP 1
The first SEE workshop was held at Cardiff on 16-19 August 2007. The main presenters were the contributors to the special issue of Studies in History and Philosophy of Science entitled Case Studies of Expertise and Experience to be published in December 2007. Abstracts and extended summaries of the papers are available from the links below.
The workshop was a successful and lively gathering with animated discussions about a range of topics, including the nature of tacit knowledge, the use of interactional expertise and the importance of retaining a role for specialist expertise. Whilst is it hard to judge the success of an event objectively, the fact that we now have firm plans for a another special issue based on the papers and offers to host SEESHOPS 2 and 3 suggests that something worthwhile is taking place.
Information about SEESHOP 2, held in August 2008, is also available.
