This seminar will introduce key topics, theories and methodology in human-computer interaction (HCI) and usability, with a focus on applying them to real situations.

Quantitative user experience research is a human-centered perspective on problems, using large amounts of data to make general conclusions about people and technology. Solving these problems effectively requires a mix of technical skills and critical thinking. This course covers social considerations in quantitative research and the process of creating effective surveys and data logs.
