A course is the basic teaching unit, it's design as a medium for a student to acquire comprehensive knowledge and skills indispensable in the given field. A course guarantor is responsible for the factual content of the course.
For each course, there is a department responsible for the course organisation. A person responsible for timetabling for a given department sets a time schedule of teaching and for each class, s/he assigns an instructor and/or an examiner.
Expected time consumption of the course is expressed by a course attribute extent of teaching. For example, extent = 2 +2 indicates two teaching hours of lectures and two teaching hours of seminar (lab) per week.
At the end of each semester, the course instructor has to evaluate the extent to which a student has acquired the expected knowledge and skills. The type of this evaluation is indicated by the attribute completion. So, a course can be completed by just an assessment ('pouze zápočet'), by a graded assessment ('klasifikovaný zápočet'), or by just an examination ('pouze zkouška') or by an assessment and examination ('zápočet a zkouška') .
The difficulty of a given course is evaluated by the amount of ECTS credits.
The course is in session (cf. teaching is going on) during a semester. Each course is offered either in the winter ('zimní') or summer ('letní') semester of an academic year. Exceptionally, a course might be offered in both semesters.
The subject matter of a course is described in various texts.
NIE-NUR User Interface Design Extent of teaching: 2P+1C Instructor: Pavlíček J. Completion: Z,ZK Department: 18102 Credits: 5 Semester: Z Annotation:
Students will understand the theorical background of human-computer interaction and user interface (UI) design, will learn formal description of UIs, formal user models, the fundamental notions and procesures. They get acquainted with graphical, speech, and multimodal UIs. Thanks to the gained knowledge, the students will be able to design advanced UIs.
Lecture syllabus:
1. Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and User Interface (UI), definition, examples, history. 2. Information and UI, various levels of inputs and outputs, user skills, ways of interaction. Standards for UI. 3. Cognitive aspects of HCI theories, human sensors, information processing in human brain. 4. HCI theories (descriptive, predictive, Norman-Gulfs). 5. Parameters of human perception, limitations, use of perceptual issues in UI design. 6. User model, conceptual model of UI, personae. 7. Formal methods of dialog description (grammars, state diagrams). 8. Software tools and technologies for UI design. 9. Design cycles of UI design, known procedures. Scenarios. User support within UI (error handling). 10. Methods of UI evaluation and testing. 11. Speech UI. Speech synthesis and recognition. 12. Modality and multimodal UI. 13. Special UIs (3D, mobile, and others). Seminar syllabus:
1. [2] Assignment of course projects. 2. [4] Consultations to course projects. 3. Course project checkpoint (milestone). 4. [4] Consultations to course projects. 5. [2] Presentations of course projects. 6. Assessment. Literature:
