2 Year/course level 3 rd year - Level 5 Prerequisites for this course (if any) Data structures - CS 212D Current requirements for this course (if any) None Site (to be given if not inside the main building of the institution) College of Computer and Information Sciences 3. Objectives of the course: This course is an introduction to Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), a discipline concerned with the design, evaluation, and implementation of interactive computing systems for human use and with the study of major phenomena surrounding them. The course considers the inherently multi- and interdisciplinary nature of HCI and situates various HCI issues in the organizational and societal contexts. It introduces theories of human psychology, principles of computer systems and user interfaces designs, a methodology of developing effective HCI for information systems, and issues involved in using technologies for different purposes. It is intended to give students an overview of the entire HCI field by covering most aspects of it. 2
