Course Objectives: | Main objective is to understand the user centered design in software engineering. Human Computer Interaction is an important interdisciplinary studying area, both scholars and professionals. It covers computer science, anthropology and educational psychology, etc. User interface design issues are critical for encountering, end users’ needs in software development process and these topics will be given. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; 1. Define the basic terms and concepts related to human-computer interaction 2. Define the limits and human capabilities 3. Construct user and task analysis 4. Designe user interface and develop prototype 5. Identify the usability testing steps 6. Analyse the human perspective 7. Describe the importance of color and typography for user interfaces 8. Review the new user interface design techniques such as accessibility, globalization, and personalization. 9. Identify the hierarchical models represent a user’s task and goal structure 10. Identify new research areas of HCI. |
The course content is composed of hci fundamentals, making interactive systems natural, user modeling in user-centred system design, the user-centred system design process, task analysis, requirements gathering, storyboarding and prototyping, cognitive physiology, the model human processor, advancing simplistic theories, theories of human perception, observational evaluation and protocol analysis, experiments. |
