  1. Research Topics In Human-Computer Interaction Course Summary Jeffrey Heer · 2 June 2009

  2. Task Design What is HCI? Organizational & Social Issues Technology Humans

  3. Iterative Design Cycle • Getting it right the first time is hard • Need better support for quick turns around loop Design Evaluate Prototype

  4. [Buxton, Sketching User Experiences]

  5. [O’Sullivan]

  6. Seated, able-bodied users, working individually on document processing tasks.

  7. Revisiting Course Goals

  8. The goal of this course is for you, upon completion, to be able to undertake a research project of your own design

  9. What is Research? “Systematic data collection with the intent to contribute to generalizable knowledge” “Breaking down phenomena”

  10. reading doing

  11. Primary Source Material

  12. Standard Deviation Mean Score Correlation Coefficient = -0.67

  13. Evaluating the Readings Dimensions of Consideration Impactful, solves problem / drives adoption Innovative, suggests new directions Orienting, clarifies the research landscape Clear, exemplar of good communication How do the papers we have read map onto the dimensions? Is there a useful typology?

  14. Literature Index

  15. Literature Index

  16. Research Methods

  17. Writing Technical Presentation Critical Thinking

  18. Final Project Presentations Tuesday June 9,3:30-6:30pm, 104 Gates 8 minute presentations • 6 min for research, 2 min for questions • Start with an overview: • 1 sentence statement of your research result • 1 slide / 4 sentences of what you did and why • Rest of time on details. Assume audience is familiar with HCI issues: focus on your work • Post slides to course website

  19. Final Project Paper Thursday June 11, 7am - 2 pages, ACM format • Note that it is hard to write a good 2 page paper! • Try writing a longer paper first, then trim down • The abstract is the most important part • Communicate the contributions exactly: don’t be vague! • Related work is important, but be judicious • Frame prior work in terms of how it relates to your work • Be clear how you build on and extend prior research • Use favorite paper(s) as inspirational templates • Early submissions are appreciated!

  20. What onething did you most get out of the course?

  21. What do you think are the most promising directions for HCI research?
