Introduction
This set of teacher’s notes accompanies the book “Human–Computer Interaction” and is intended to support teachers using the book as a core course text. It includes solutions to and suggestions for the use of the exercsies in the book, together with additional project material. In addition, a set of master slides are available which can be used to produce overhead projector foils. These cover the key points for each chapter, making them ideal for a lecture-based course. Please contact the publisher for further details. We have tried to design the book and additional material to be flexible and to support effective teaching of HCI. Obviously in any such venture there is room for improvement. We therefore welcome comments on both the book and this set of notes which will allow us to improve future editions. We are particularly keen to hear suggestions for material that you would find useful that we have not included and, conversely, to know if we have included anything which you do not find useful. Please send your comments to us care of the publishers.
Course structure
Human–Computer Interaction is a subject which is by definition practical and whch lends itself well to novel teaching methods. It is our intention that the book and these notes be able to support both traditional lecture-style courses and those based mainly on project work. In either case we strongly recommend that students be given the opportunity to do some practical work, both in experimenting with and evaluating existing available systems and in designing their own interfaces.
