Interaction Design by Jenny Preece
Human computer interaction (HCI) is the study of how users interact with different media and consequently what design and engineering strategies are needed to improve usability. This book teaches students how to use the principles of HCI to create user experiences that enhance and extend the way people work, communicate and interact.
"A near definitive guide which covers not only HCI but also the issues which effect and are affected by human computer interaction" (M2 Communications, 7 June 2002)
The authors are all senior academics with a background in teaching, researching, and consulting in the UK, USA, Canada, Australia, and Europe. Having worked together on two other successful text books, they bring considerable experience in curriculum development, using a variety of made for distance learning as well as face-to-face teaching. They have considerable knowledge of creating learning texts and websites that motivate and support learning for a range of students. All three authors are specialists in interaction design and human-computer interaction(HCI). In addition they bring skills from other disciplines. Yvonne Rogers is a cognitive scientist, Helen Sharp is a software engineer, and Jenny Preece works in information systems. Their complementary knowledge and skills enable them to cover the breadth of concepts in interaction design and HCI to produce an interdisciplinary text and website. They have collaborated closely, supporting and commenting upon each other's work to produce a high degree of integration of ideas with one voice. They have shared everything from initial concepts, through writing, design and production.
