Study Notes
Definition of HCI
- HCI (Human-Computer Interaction) is the study of how people interact with computers and to what extent computers are designed for successful human interaction.
Evolution of HCI Research
- Initially, research focused on "man-machine interaction" but shifted to "human-computer interaction" due to the growing interest in computers and the diversity of user populations.
Components of HCI
- HCI consists of three parts: the user, the computer, and the ways they work together.
Understanding the User
- The "user" can refer to an individual or a group of users working together.
- Understanding how people's sensory systems (sight, hearing, touch) process information is crucial in HCI.
- Different users form different conceptions, emphasizing the importance of user-centered design.
