Teaching User Interface Evaluation Methods with Games

چکیده
We present an experience report detailing the use of games as a means of teaching empirical evaluation of user interfaces. We discuss the implementation of a similar course project structures in an engineering course on human-computer interaction (HCI) and a humanities course on game design. Both courses featured a milestone-driven, iterative approach to student projects, which provided students with a great deal of diverse feedback throughout the duration of the course. Parallels are drawn between player experience testing and HCI methods. Keywords— Game design, player experience testing, humancomputer interaction, research methods, pedagogy.
