SYLLABUS

COURSE OVERVIEW: Training, skill, and experience are necessary to design user interfaces that are truly easy to learn and use. This course presents the theory and principles behind great user interfaces and enables students to put theory into practice by (1) specifying criteria for evaluating user interfaces; (2) implementing a variety of user interfaces, including GUI (Graphical User Interface), VUI (Voice User Interface) , and MMUI (Multimodal User Interface); and (3) applying the evaluation criteria to the user interface. Students should be able to apply the knowledge they gain from this course to both design and evaluate user interfaces using technologies available today and tomorrow.
