HCI 596: HCI Research Capstone

This course provides students with the experience of reading and synthesizing the literature on a particular HCI topic, with particular attention to judging the quality of the sources. The course also teaches the student to develop an annotated bibliography on a particular topic, and develop a research plan for writing a research survey paper or develop a research plan to answer a specific question by designing an experiment/questionnaire. After presenting their paper, the student will review other student's papers, and provide appropriate criticism. All students will be required to sign up for the CDM/COMM participant pool. We will invite researchers at CDM to discuss their current research.

HCI 450 or HCI 460 is a prerequisite for this class.
