COURSE CS-364 (OPTIONAL)

HUMAN – COMPUTER INTERACTION

UNIVERSITY OF CRETEFACULTY OF SCIENCES AND ENGINEERING

COMPUTER SCIENCE DEPARTMENT

ECTS: 6

Prerequisite: CS-150

…the multidisciplinary field concerned with the:

analysis, design, implementation and

evaluationof the UI of computer applications

with which the user may interact,

as well as with the issues associated with this interaction

Slide 2CS-364: Human – Computer Interaction

(a) to introduce fundamental concepts and analyse

the issues associated with the communication

process between the human and the computer

(b) to point out the importance of rigorous analysis,

design, implementation and evaluation of the

user interface of computer applications, based

on a holistic approach on the one hand of the

user needs and capabilities, and on the other

hand of the application target goals

(c) to identify the required knowledge for effective

analysis, design and implementation of user

interfaces, providing at the same time

theoretical knowledge and practice

Slide 3CS-364: Human – Computer Interaction

The final grade for the course will be calculated according to

the following formula:

F = 0.4 * W + 0.6 * A

where:

F = Final grade (0-10)

W = Written exams grade (0-10)

A = Assignments’ grade (0-10)

A = 0,15*Assignment Α + 0,10*Assignment Β + 0,40*Phase A + 0,35*Phase B

The written examination will take place during the exams period. The

course does not require written or oral preliminary examinations

Slide 4CS-364: Human – Computer Interaction

Assignment A (Individual Assignment)

Implement a responsive web page in HTML/CSS/JS from a given design▪ Responsive: adjusts automatically to the browser (PC, tablet,

smartphone)

▪ Single-page application

Assignment B (Group Assignment)

Find two (3) every day objects (one that follows a good design and two that follow a bad design) and analyze them with respect to the POET principles

Slide 5CS-364: Human – Computer Interaction

Project: Develop the user interface of a hypothetical application. The assignment is carried out in the following phases:

A. Interactive User Interface Design (Lo-Fi and Hi-Fi prototyping)

B. Evaluation

Slide 6CS-364: Human – Computer Interaction

Each project phase will be assessed shortlyafter its submission

Continuous feedback will be provided throughsessions with the course assistants

The project will be carried out in groups oftwo or three (2-3) students
