Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Human-Computer Interaction, Human-centered design, usability engineering, universal access, basics of cognitive psychology, motivation, and communication psychology, app programming.

Students are able to design and develop interactive user interfaces that are evaluated by users as usable and interactions are experienced as positive. They can learn and apply digital tools collaboratively and implement them in teams in different contexts. They work on small app development projects that encompass the entire Human Centered Design process. Other methods of design, such as Participatory Design, Inclusive Design will be discussed in contrast. Students will be able to evaluate human-computer interfaces and learn to critically engage with the implications of these technologies. The theories learned will be applied in practice through the development of apps, which will enable students to meet the diverse challenges of digitalization.

Note: This version of the course is for non-CS students. Previous knowledge in CS is not necessary. Classes and projects will be joined with the regular HCI course for CS students.

Assessment and permitted materials

* active participation
* solving tasks
* project work (app development) and presentation
* tests
* final oral exam

Note: The non-CS version of the course will offer alternatives for programming assignments.
