Introduction The first lecture presents objectives
and scopes of HCI, the course structure and important conferences and
journals in HCI. Lecture 1: Introduction [Lecture
notes] [Video] Users This section consists of
three lectures on human psychology, their implications in interface design
and concept of user modelling. The lectures introduce principles of visual
and auditory perception, cognition and motor action considering issues with
users with functional impairment. Lecture 2: Perception [Lecture
notes] [Video] Lecture 3: Cognition and
Motor-action [Lecture
notes] [Video] Lecture 4: User Modelling
in HCI [Lecture
notes] [Video] Case study This section presents a
real life project aiming to develop a multimodal adaptive software framework.
The section introduces concepts of collecting usability requirements through
user survey in multiple countries, design improvement through user modelling
and simulation, multimodal interaction and interface personalization for
users with a wide range of abilities. This
section presents a demonstration of the Cambridge
Simulator and concludes with a few ideas for students’ assignments. Lecture 5 & 6: Case
study [Lecture
notes] [Video] Lecture 7: Assignments [Lecture
notes] [Video] Usability evaluation This section introduces
different usability evaluation techniques like heuristic evaluation,
cognitive walkthrough, Cognitive Dimensions of Notations and so on. It also
teaches to design experiments and user trials, using different usability
metrics and doing statistical analysis of results. Lecture 8: Usability
analysis techniques [Lecture
notes] Lecture 9: User Trial &
Data Analysis [Lecture
notes] HCI technology This section introduces to
different HCI research fields like Computer Supported Cooperative Work,
Pervasive Computing, Affective Computing, Accessible Computing and
Information Visualization. It also emphasizes on novel modalities of
interaction including gesture, eye-gaze and head tracking interfaces. Lecture 10 & 11: HCI
Technology [Lecture
notes] [Video] Lecture 12: Eye-gaze and
Head Tracking Interface [Lecture
notes] Standardization The last section introduces
the concept of standardization. It discusses about major standardization
organizations and presents a case study of writing an international standard
related to HCI. Lecture 13: Standardization
[Lecture
notes] [Video]
