410253(B): Human Computer Interface

Unit I Foundations of Human–Computer Interaction 08 Hours
What is HCI – design, models, evaluation, Need to understand people, computers and methods. Basic
human abilities - vision, hearing, touch, memory.
Computers – speed, interfaces, widgets, and effects on interaction. Humans – Memory, Attention
Span, Visual Perception, psychology, ergonomics. Understanding Users.
Methods for evaluation of interfaces with users: goals of evaluation, approaches, ethics,
introspection, extracting the conceptual model, direct observation, constructive interaction,
interviews and questionnaires, continuous evaluation via user feedback and field studies, choosing an
evaluation method.
Unit II The Design Process 08 Hours
Interaction Design Basics, Interaction Styles. HCI in the Software Process. HCI design principles and
rules: design principles, principles to support usability, golden rules and heuristics, HCI patterns,
design rules, HCI design standards. Direct Manipulation - Overview, Scope, Applications. Universal
Design, User-centered design, task analysis/GOMS, Graphic Design
Unit III Implementation 08 Hours
Implementation Tools, Technology and change designing for the Web, designing for portable
devices. Handling errors and Designing Help. Prototyping and UI Software.
Unit IV Evaluation and User Support 08 Hours
Evaluation of User Interfaces. Web Browsers - Fonts, Color Palette, Color Depth, Resolution,
Layout, Size, Orientation. Mobile devices issues – design, limitations, what next. User Support.
Unit V Users Models 08 Hours
