Course Description
This is a project-focused course covering fundamental principles of user interface design, implementation, and evaluation. Students will work in small teams on a term-long project that involves: analysis of the problem domain, user skills, and tasks; iterative prototyping of interfaces to address user needs; conducting several forms of evaluation such as cognitive walkthroughs and usability tests; implementation of the final prototype. Non-technical majors may enroll as non-programmers who participate in all aspects of the projects with the possible exception of implementation.
Credit Hours
