The contributors to this web log ("blog") are postgraduate students studying an MSc in Computer Science at the School of Computer Science, University of Birmingham.
As part of the group assessment exercise for the Human Computer Interaction (HCI) 2 module, we have been asked to develop a technological product aimed at a specific age group / generation, namely
The purpose of this blog is to document and discuss ideas as well as report on the progress we make at each step of the product development process, with discussions focusing specifically on aspects of human computer interaction. Ultimately we are hoping to design a usable and marketable technological product that addresses the demands of HCI for our chosen age group.
If you're unclear as to what HCI is, you can find a minimalist but informative definition here ,a slide show below representing a brief history (and the possible future) of HCI, and numerous links at the right of this page. Finally, if you have any relevant comments or thoughts, please feel free to share them with us (you can do so via the 'comments' link located below each post).
