Introduction to interaction design and human-computer interaction with a primary focus on user-centered design techniques. Three broad categories of topics within human-computer interaction are covered: (a) concepts in human factors, usability, and interface design, and the effects of human capabilities and limitations on interaction with computer systems; (b) design, development, and evaluation of user interfaces for computer systems and learning how to use existing frameworks to implement interaction architectures; and (c) current areas of cutting-edge research and development in human-computer interaction.
