DevThis: HCI Education beyond Usability Evaluation
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we analyze a main future development in HCI in the direction of ubiquitous computing. Based on these considerations we describe the underpinnings, design and development of Develop This! (DevThis) as a set of educational modules to teach the theory and practice aspects of ubiquitous computing within the Bachelor curriculum of Media Technology at Rotterdam University. Finally, we conclude with ongoing developments and a future outlook.
