Description and Contextualization of the SubjectToggle Navigation
The "Human-Computer Interaction" subject is compulsory for students in the Software Engineering speciality in the Computer Science degree course, and optional for students of other specialities. You will need to have basic knowledge of Software Engineering, for example what a three-level architecture is or a software development cycle. During the term, the front end of a three-level web application will be developed.
Skills/Learning outcomes of the subjectToggle Navigation
The subject aims at the student learning to: (1) analyse (apprehend/understand), discuss, evaluate and analyse user requirements in order to (2) analyse, design and evaluation systems that are usable, accessible and ergonomic in different environments and places in a structured and methodical way, (3) paying special attention to the different needs of different types of users with varying cognitive and psycho-motor (dis)abilities, (4) transmit and weigh up, in a collaborative manner with users, ideas, designs and applications for these systems.
In addition, we will work on other generic competences envisaged in the profile of the degree, in the document List_of_competences.pdf at
http://www.ehu.es/documents/340468/516505/Lista+de+competencias.pdf, in particular the general competences : C3,C4, C5, C9 and C10 of the degree, as well as the specific competences IS1, IS2 and IS4 of the specialty of Software Ingeneering.
Theoretical and practical contentToggle Navigation
Theme 1 Introduction. Basic concepts.
Theme 2 The human factor.
Theme 3 Devices for, and styles of, interaction.
Theme 4 Interface engineering. Architecture of Information.
Theme 6 Design techniques. New trends.
Theme 7 Interface evaluation techniques. Carry out a usability study. Measurements and analysis.
MethodologyToggle Navigation
The subject involves three main types of activities, all based on presence-based classes (one-off and regular) and student participation: theory classes, practical sessions in the laboratory and other sessions for work and discussion in groups.
Based on active teaching methodologies, both in the theory classes and in the practical sessions, and with the aim of encouraging students to participate actively and gain satisfaction, activities based on teamwork and the presentation of solutions will be organised, followed by debates and the discussion of problems encountered in the practical work sessions.

The assessment system for the subject offers two options: continuous assessment or exam and practical work -based assessment (final assessment).
1. Continuous assessment: based on one-off and regular attendance in class, presenting results, taking tests on the knowledge acquired and the performance of practical work (both individually and in groups). The grade is obtained from the following assessment results:
a. Development project (75% of the grade, compulsory): a project on the construction of a usable interface, throughout the term. Individual tests on the knowledge acquired will be set, and the mark will help towards the end-of-project grade.
b. Complementary work (25% of the grade): An evaluation of the summaries made from the course reading list and presentation of solutions, as well as participation in related debates.
2. Exam and practical work based- assessment (final assessment). Based on the established periods and procedures, with voluntary attendance in class. The final exam consists of two phases: one to assess the competences obtained in the course of the usable interface project (compulsory and done before the exam), and the other to assesses the level of knowledge shown in the subject. Both the practical work and the exam are individual and compulsory, and must be passed (with a mark of 5 for each one).
Extraordinary Call: Orientations and DisclaimerToggle Navigation
The same requirements and assessment criteria as for the final assessment are applied. Pass grades are not carried over to the next year.
