Interestingly enough I was just reading a report I was sent yesterday:

Being Human: Human-Computer Interaction in the Year 2020 
http://research.microsoft.com/hci2020/download.html
which makes various recommendations, including number 4 which is
summarised in the reader%u2019s guide as:

"Teach HCI to the young.
The report argues that changes in computers and computing have a
significant impact on all our lives. Consequently, the study of HCI
should be introduced to the young as soon as possible.  This goes
beyond traditional educational concepts of %u2018computer
science%u2019 %u2013 not just teaching children about how computers
and applications work, but about their wider impact."

-so sorry, it's not really helpful to you, Meredith, but I was just
excited to see that people are already on it and thought it might be
of interest and encouragement!
