This course introduces students to the principles and practice of human-computer interaction. It first discusses foundational topics including historical context, the human factor, interaction elements, and the fundamentals of science and research. Next, students learn about the methods for conducting an experiment to evaluate a new computer interface or interaction technique. Finally, it presents detailed discussions and how-to analyses on models of interaction, focusing on descriptive models and predictive models.The course has a strong practical component. Students will conduct all stages of the development of a (simulated) smart phone or web app -- need finding, story boarding, rough and detailed implementation design, and evaluation by users.
