Teaching the practitioners: developing a distance learning postgraduate HCI course
Jenny J. Preece, Laurie S. Keller · Interacting with Computers · 1991
Abstract This paper reports on HCI education and on issues in HCI needing resolution when developing a course in human-computer interaction. We also look at how HCI can be taught, particularly to professional engineers, scientists and managers, using distance teaching and predicated on students using their industrial base as a classroom and laboratory. The paper also draws a comparison between the practices of user-centred iterative software design and the way that our course was developed.
