HCI Research

This course is a graduate-level introduction to HCI research. Students will learn to conduct original HCI research by reading and discussing research papers while collaborating on a semester-long research project. The class will focus on both the positive potentials of technology as well as the negative consequences that new technologies may have on society. Each week the class will focus on a theme of HCI research and review foundational, cutting-edge, and critical theory research relevant to that theme.
