  6. A Typical Program of Study * Required course

  7. User Interface Designwww.ils.unc.edu/classes/inls257_sp03/257-home.S03.htm • Introduction (1 week) • Humans as system users • (2 weeks) • Task analysis and description • (2.5 weeks) • Developing a design (1 week) • Specifying the design in a prototype (3.5 weeks) • Includes prototype demos • Evaluating the design (4 weeks) • Usability inspection • Usability testing

  8. User Interface Design:Assignments • Design Project • User analysis • Task analysis • Design decisions, documented • Prototype with documentation • Usability inspection • Of a classmate’s design project • Usability testing • Study proposal

  9. User Interface Design:“Show and Tell” Student-led discussions of artifacts

  10. Seminar in HCIwww.ils.unc.edu/~march/courses/357_f02/syllabus.html • Information interaction perspective • The problem of information seeking • The AgileViews framework • Representations and mechanisms (4 weeks) • Usability and universal access • Physiological data collection: eye tracking & biometrics • Interaction trends

  11. How is it different in ILS? • Types of systems • Emphasis on IR and database systems • Types of organizations/contexts • Not focused on corporations • Emphasis on libraries for MSLS students • Accreditation requirements • ALA, not AACSB
