0BHumanComputerInteraction:AnOverview • WhatisHumanComputerInteraction(HCI)? • ImportanceofHCI • GoodandPoorDesignExamples • WhatandWhoareinvolvedinHCIdesign?
WhatisHCI? Thestudyofbridgebetweenthem,whichincludes • Observationofinteractionsbetweenpeople&computers,e.g.,FindexaminationpapersviaourlibraryWeb • Analysisoftheinvolvedinteractions,e.g.,Areallthestepsinvolvedarenecessary? • Humanconsequencesafterinteractingwithcomputers,e.g.,Cantheuserperformhistask?Doesheenjoyworkingwiththecomputer?
WhatisHCI? • concernedwiththedesign,evaluation&implementationofinteractivecomputersystemsforhumanuse&withthestudyofmajorphenomenasurroundingthem”(1992) • Dix:HCIisstudyofpeople,computertechnologyandthesetheseinfluenceeach determinehow wecanmakemoreusablebypeople”(1998) • Carroll: HCI is thestudy andpracticeofusability.Itis aboutunderstandingandcreatingsoftwareandothertechnologythatpeoplewillwanttouse,willbeabletouse,andwillfindeffectivewhenused.”(2002)
WhyHCI? • Now,computersarecheap andusedby non-technicalpeople(differentbackgrounds,needs,knowledge,skills) • Computerandsoftwaremanufacturershavenoticedtheimportanceofmakingcomputers“user-friendly”:easytouse,savepeopletime,etc. • Howtoachieve“user-friendliness”in computerdesign?
HCIScope • Use&Context:Findapplicationareasforcomputers • Human : Study psychological & physiologicalaspects e.g.,study howauserlearnstouseanewproduct,studyhumantypingspeed • Computer: Hardware&softwareoffered e.g.,input&outputdevices, speed, interactionstyles,computergraphics • Development: Design,implementation&evaluation
HCIGoals • HCI developorimprove • Safety • Utility • Effectiveness • Efficiency • Usability • Appeal
