Jose Rizal University

COLLEGE OF COMPUTER STUDIES AND ENGINEERING
Information Technology Department

VISION
JRU will be a market leader in the use of technology for innovation in teaching and learning to produce graduates of social importance.

MISSION
The University aims to develop its students to become useful and responsible citizens through the effective transfer
of relevant knowledge and desirable values.

INSTITUTIONAL OUTCOME
A JRU graduate has the competencies and values in the disciplinal area completed such that he/she is
a useful and responsible citizen of the country.

Course Title: Human- Computer Interaction

Course Code: EMC C102

Credit Units: 3 units

Contact Hours: 5 hours per week (2 hours lecture, 3 hours laboratory)

Course Description: The course is intended to introduce the student to the basic concepts of human-computer interaction. It will cover the basic theory and methods that exist in the field. The
course will unfold by examining design and evaluation. Case studies are used throughout the readings to exemplify the methods presented and to lend a context to the issues discussed. The
students will gain principles and skills for designing and evaluating interactive systems. Among the topics studied are the design and evaluation of effective user interactive designs, including
principles and guidelines for designing interactive systems. Additionally, much emphasis is given to the developmental process for user interaction design as an integral, but different, part of
interactive software development. User interaction development activities include requirements and task analysis, usability specifications, design, prototyping, and evaluation.
Pre-requisite: ITC C103

Placement: Second Year, Second Semester
