Human Computer Interaction and Design (Semester 1)

1. Deploy theory, design principles, tools and methodologies to implement and evaluate human- computer interactions
2. Carry out design research to inform development of systems and applications;
3. Construct and create prototypes of human-computer interactions;
4. Demonstrate the origins of ideas by correctly citing and referencing sources used in the work;

Design Process, Prototyping, Prototyping Tools, User Research, Research Methods, Evaluation of HCI solutions, Usability testing, Cognitive Psychology, Information Processing, HCI methodologies, standards and guidelines, Multi-Modal Interactions, Multi-Sensory Interactions, Tangible User Interfaces, Brain Computer Interfaces, Natural User Interfaces, Dialog Systems, Metaphors, Conceptual Models, Relevant legal, social, ethical and professional issues.

Employability is enhanced through improving students’ individual problem solving skills. There is the opportunity to make sensible assumptions in real life scenarios and to reflect on skills gained and the impact of the proposed solution. There is a substantial written element in the assessment emphasising clear formatting, spelling and grammar within a clear, well-reasoned narrative. Students gain advanced prototyping skills.

The lectures will focus on the issues affecting the design, research, prototyping and evaluation processes linked to developing effective HCI solutions.

The tutorials will consist of collaborative small group and student-led learning activities to explore practical applications of the lecture topics. The lab sessions will be used to apply what has been learned in lectures and tutorials to activities relating the coursework.
