The course focuses on the factors affecting the design of HCI. The topics covered include: human behavior, basics of interaction paradigm, framework and styles; interaction design principles; design models; usability principles and testing; state of the art facets of Interaction beyond GUI with particular focus on human perceptual system such as speech, hearing, touch and movement. |
