A Report on Introducing Human-Computer Interaction to Undergraduate Computer Science Students from Romania
Journal Title: Revista Romana de Interactiune Om-Calculator - Year 2018, Vol 11, Issue 4
Abstract
This paper reports the experience of introducing and teaching Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) at the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science, from Babes-Bolyai University. We describe the theoretical content presented during lectures, the practical work the students have to perform, the involvement and the attitude of the students toward our approach in introducing them in the domain of Human-Computer Interaction. We also present the difficulties and challenges of introducing HCI between the mainstream computing related subjects our students are used to study

Experimentation of an acceptance model of e-learning systems
The aim of this paper is to test a model of acceptance of e-learning systems using the UTAUT reference model. After a brief description of UTAUT model, are described the proposed model and the assumptions, methods used a...
The UsiSketch Software Architecture
In previous work, we proposed a method to facilitate the tabletop collaborative prototyping of model-based user interfaces in early steps of the design process when multiple stakeholders have only a vague goal in mind of...
Kinesthetic Learning – Haptic User Interfaces for Gyroscopic Precession Simulation
Some forces in nature are difficult to comprehend due to their non-intuitive and abstract nature. Forces driving gyroscopic precession are invisible, yet their effect is very important in a variety of applications, from...
