Description
Human-Computer Interaction
(Master of Science in Engineering in Computer Science, Laurea Magistrale in Ingegneria Informatica)
Prof. T.Catarci
Course Goal. This course concentrates on the fundamentals of human-computer interaction and discusses in detail the concept of usability for interactive systems as well as the user-centered design (UCD) and the development of interactive systems. The various topics will be examined under different perspectives, dealing with theoretical, methodological, technological and application-oriented aspects, looking at them both in the current scenario and in view of future developments. Along the course, the student should acquire theoretical skills, methodologies, and techniques to be applied in a concrete project to be developed following the user-centered design. Recent technologies for interactive artefacts and immersive environments will also be presented
Prerequisites: Students are expected to have a basic background knowledge on programming languages and software engineering. Skills on interaction design and computer graphics are also appreciated.
Lecture Material
A. Dix. et al. Human-Computer Interaction. Pearson/Prentice Hall, 2003 (3rd edition).
Lectures hours and rooms
Mon 5pm-7pm classroom B2 Via Ariosto 25
Wed 2pm-5pm classroom 41 San Pietro in Vincoli
Tutors
Valeria Mirabella and Alba Bisante are responsible for the assignment and monitoring of the students' teamwork (tesina). Students have to get their approval before registering for the teamwork presentation.
Final exam
The final exam is constituted by the elaboration of a teamwork (tesina) and the oral presentation of such a teamwork, during which questions on the various topics covered during the course will be asked. The exam score will be calculated approximately as: 0,2*questionsscore+0,8*teamworkscore.
Exams are in presence only.
