Provides an introduction to designing user interfaces for a variety of interactive systems. The design process emphasizes the development of software systems from a user, rather than system-oriented, perspective. The course focuses on using real users to complete the specification, design, evaluation, and testing of the interface. Students will learn both human (cognitive) and technological tools for designing and building interfaces. The course also presents human-computer interaction concepts and theory, which involves computer science, psychology, social behavior, and other human factors associated with computer use.
