Course Objective
HCI is an interdisciplinary field that integrates

theories and methodologies from computer
science, cognitive psychology, design, and many
other areas.
This course uses an integrative and crossdisciplinary approach to bring together a broad
variety of topics together in relation to the
problem of developing quality user interaction
designs.
Understanding principles and skills for designing
and evaluating interactive systems
Students will be able to apply course content in

Students Learning Outcomes

After completion of this course the
student will be able to
Understand the basics of human-computer

interactions abilities and limitations.
Understand basic theories, tools, and
techniques in HCI
Understand fundamental aspects of
designing and evaluation techniques.
Apply appropriate HCI techniques to
design systems that are usable by people.

Motivation for studying HCI
"designing interactive products to

support people in their everyday
and working lives".
Human users and their contexts are
major components of the design
problem.
Inadequate attention to users and task
context not only leads to bad user
experience, it also puts entire systems
at risk.

Dr. M. Asif e-mail:

Ubiquitous computing and rich sensorfilled environments are finding their
way out of the laboratory, not just into
films and fiction, but also into our
workplaces and homes
We live in networked societies where
personal computing devices from
mobile phones to smart cards fill our
pockets, and electronic devices
surround us at home and at work.
This Changing face of computing
Dr.
Dr. M. Asif e-mail:
devices is changing the way we interact
10
Who is Involved in HCI?
A multi-disciplinary subject
Require expertise in a range of topics
Psychology and Cognitive Science:
Ergonomics:
Sociology:
computer science and engineering:
to give
knowledge of the users perceptual, cognitive and
problem-solving
for the users physical capabilities
to help her understand the wider context

of the interaction
to be
able to build the necessary technology
Business:
Graphic design:
to be able to market it
presentation
Dr.
Dr.
M. Asif e-mail:
to produce an effective interface

11
What is HCI?
Human-Computer Interaction is 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
(ACM/IEEE)
HCI involves the design,

implementation and evaluation of
Dr. interactive
Dr. M. Asif e-mail: systems in the context of
the users task and work
12
What is HCI?
Three major issues of concern in HCI
The People
The Computers
The Tasks they peroformed
Dr.
Dr. M. Asif e-mail:
13
What is HCI?
User is interacting with the computer in

order to accomplish something

14
What is HCI? - Human
Human?? Or User
The user is whoever is trying to get

the job done using the technology
An individual User
Group of Users working together
Sequence of users in an organization, each
dealing with some part of the task or
process.
Dr.
Dr. M. Asif e-mail:
15
What is HCI? - Computer
Computer??
any
technology
ranging from
the general desktop computer to a
large-scale computer system, a process
control system or an embedded system
Any other???
Dr.
Dr. M. Asif e-mail:
16
What is HCI? - Interaction
Interaction??
Any
communication
between a
user and computer

Can be direct or indirect
Direct interaction involves a dialog with
feedback and control throughout
performance of the task
Indirect interaction may involve batch
processing or intelligent sensors
controlling the environment

A Successful Product
useful accomplish what is required:

play music, cook dinner, format a
document;
usable do it easily and naturally,
without danger of error, etc.;
used make people want to use it, be
attractive, engaging, fun, etc.
