Integrating HCI Principles into Device Development Curriculum
Robert Healy
Committee
Abstract
Human Computer Interaction (HCI) is an important and often under –emphasized subject in undergraduate computer science curricula. This capstone project involves the summarization of the key HCI principles through a review of current literature, an interview with an expert from the psychology field, and a review of existing HCI courses at other institutions. It then takes those theories, summarizes the key concepts, and recommends a curriculum for an undergraduate HCI course. Finally to practice the concepts a review of the homepage of the University of North Carolina at Wilmington’s adherence to design rules is evaluated, and suggestions are made to more effectively apply HCI principles.
