Human-Computer Interaction Course: CMSC 434/828S - Prof. Francois V. Guimbretiere, Papers of Computer Science
Information about the human-computer interaction course (cmsc 434/828s) offered at the university of maryland, college park. The course is taught by françois guimbretière and tamer elsharnouby, and covers topics such as people, paper and computers, information visualization, and the design, implementation, and evaluation of interactive computing systems for human use. Students can expect to learn basic human factors, interface technology, and design principles, and will be evaluated based on homeworks, projects, exams, and class participation. Academic honesty is taken seriously, and violations can result in failing the course and a hearing with the judicial program.
