BJ Fogg from the Persuasive Computing lab - how do you motivate and persuade people.
Studying people: can study what is in people's brain, also look at how people perceive others, diads (how people interact), small and large groups, clusters of groups and cultures/world.
Elizabeth Churhill - Yahoo Research - ethno-centric fieldwork
Presentation: People - what we know and what it means....to us and to them

Very few tools are good at helping teach people (instructables) - teaching how th groups share knowledge to each other - video, text, cell phones, etc - to share procedural motor skills. [Take a look at Make from Bre Prentis]
