The Learning and Teaching Support Network (LTSN) Centre for Information
and Computer Sciences in conjunction with the British HCI Group and the
Department of Computing and Electrical Engineering at Heriot-Watt
University,
announce a two day workshop on "Effective Teaching and Training in HCI".
Topics:
-HCI and the curriculum
-HCI and computer science and programming
-HCI and art and graphic design
-HCI and multimedia
-HCI and psychology
-HCI and distance learning
-HCI and the gaming industry
-HCI and mobile technologies
-HCI and multimodal interfaces
WORKSHOP THEME: Today we see the same errors being made with
mobile interfaces and multimedia designs as we did with desktop interfaces
and ATMs. We as HCI educators need to continue to reiterate our sound
HCI principles and formalisms whilst updating the message for the next
generation of devices and creative media. The workshop programme will
bring together educators committed to teaching the next generation of HCI
developers, and HCI graduates who have seen the limitations of industry
and can provide feedback as to future directions of our courses. The
sessions will be discussion-led and participants may wish to bring
practical,
classroom proven case-study material of courseworks, and projects and
examinations, with the intention of sharing, evaluating and further
developing
their experiences.
