Course Mechanics and
Grading Lectures will focus on assigned readings but allow time for class participation. Designing the User Interface Fourth Edition Ben Sheiderman and Catherine Plaisant Occasionally, additional readings will be announced, normally with a Web link to a PDF document or power point presentation. If you would like additional readings, see the links page. Class participation includes attendance and being able to comment relevantly on the readings. Students will be called upon to answer questions. Occasionally, a short quiz will be part of class participation, consisting of an easy question with a short answer, multiple choice, or true / false. Design notebook: you should begin, starting this week, a design notebook which may be as simple as blank sheets of paper you carry around in your pocket. On it you should jot down at least one example per week of a user interface success or failure that you encounter and make some notes about for use in assignments later. No Final Exam but a final assignment will be due the day of the final (by the ending time of the final). Grading
