This is the projects main page for cs4hc3 and se4f03 -- HCI / CHI Courses.
Logistics
At the beginning of term the class will be divided into 12 groups, each of whom will negotiate amongst
themselves a topic of concentration from the list below with at least three ranked by selected priority.
At an early designated lecture, each group will be linked to a topic of their choice in a first-come/first-served
basis -- only one group per project.
Just after the mid-term period of the class duration, a created wiki from each group will be completed
and marked.
Part of this mark will be composed of 11 other rankings from each of the other groups,
who will rank and provide one sentence of what is best and one sentence of what is worst about the
subject wiki under consideration. The ranking for each wiki will be posted anonymously for class consideration.
Topics:
Reference -- adapted from ACM (Association for Computing Machinery -- but people can join, too!) is http://wiki.acm.org/cs2001/index.php?title=HUMAN-COMPUTER_INTERACTION
- Motivation: Why the study of how people interact with technology is vital for the development of most usable and acceptable systems.
- Contexts for HCI: mobile devices, consumer devices, business applications, web, business applications, collaboration systems, games, etc.
- Process for user-centered development: early focus on users, empirical testing, iterative design.
- Different measures for evaluation: utility, efficiency, learnability, user satisfaction.
- Models that inform human-computer interaction (HCI) design: attention, perception and recognition, movement, and cognition.
- Social issues influencing HCI design and use: culture, communication, and organizations.
- Accommodating human diversity: including universal design and accessibility and designing for multiple cultural and linguistic contexts.
- The most common interface design mistakes.
- User interface standards.
- The five interaction styles as espoused by B.Scheidermann.
- The Object-Action (or visa-versa) model and its applications.
- The direct manipulation method and its importance to CHI.
