Learning outcomes assessed

A. Demonstrate in-depth knowledge of the current research issues in the development of interactive systems, the capabilities and limitations of users, and effective methodologies for the design of useful and usable human-computer interfaces.

B. Demonstrate systematic understanding of the key techniques and methods for interface design, evaluation, and analysis.

C. Demonstrate an ability to critically analyse and evaluate real- world interactive systems.

D. Undertake requirements analysis as well as to complete the design, development, and evaluation of an interactive system.

Coursework specification

In this coursework, you need to design, implement, and evaluate an interactive system for presenting and delving into data within a certain area.

So far, what you have done – the Group project

In the group project, you made an initial plan for the interactive system. You have already:

1.   listed motivation, research issues

2.   made the physicalization / low fidelity prototypes

3.   tested the prototypes with end users

What you will do next

You need to design, implement, and evaluate an interactive system based on the previous group project.  You are highly encouraged to choose a topic that aligns with your interests. Below are some example topics:

Example Topics:

1. An interactive system to assist Master’s applicants in submitting their applications, allowing the university’s Master Admission team to review and manage them effectively.

2. An interactive system for managing calendars and scheduling daily events.

3. An interactive system to help new students navigate the campus.

4. An interactive system for recording and sharing experiences in museums.

. Design

First, you should consider the design principles and revise the design if necessary.

. Implementation

You can choose any appropriate IDE and programming language according to the specific case, such as Unity, HTML, JavaScript, WebGL, etc.

. Evaluation

According to your specific case, you need to:

1.   setup study goal and research questions (what you are going to find in the user evaluation)

2.   design a user study plan (quantitative or qualitative)

3.   decide hypothesis, dependent / independent variables based on the  research questions

4.   choose participants, apparatus, and tasks

5.   conduct the user study

6.   collect user performance data

7. analyze the data

8. discuss the conclusion

Marking Criteria

D1. Demonstration – 30 marks

You need to present your work by doing a 10-minute demo.

D2: Report (50 marks)

Marking criteria	Description	Marks
Introduction	introduce the whole interactive system, motivation, the representative users and tasks.	8
Design	discuss the design principles, considerations, and heuristics in the design (why they are used), show and discuss how they are applied in the design.	4
Physicalization, Prototypes and walk-through study	1.   show screenshots of the physicalization or prototypes and explain them 2.   explain how the walk-through evaluation was conducted 3.   explain how you used prototypes to make or improve your design, what have been improved 4.   explain why prototypes are important / how physicalization helps you to think in this step	6
System	show and explain the interactive system (the interface, interaction techniques, etc), how it was implemented.	11
Evaluation	present the usability study (goal, participants, apparatus, evaluation methods and procedures), and discuss the results.	17
Results and Discussion	conclude what have been done in the interactive system, discuss what can be improved in future	4

D3: Summary (10 marks)

A short summary of the project (abstract, one or two pictures/videos, the final application, as well as a users’ manual for using your interface) to be added to the Project Gallery.

D4: Source code (10 marks)

You will hand in the source code, as well as the instructions for compiling the program.
