The workshop is divided into five sections:
Section 1: Principles of UI design
Section 2: Discussion of the various UI evaluation methods applied in the industry and by the research community
Section 3: Using a prototyping tool, the instructor will design a simple application and ask the students to evaluate it
Section 4: The students will design their own UI for a simple application using a prototyping tool
Section 5: The students will evaluate each other’s designs
When: Tuesday March 2, 2021 – 1:00pm-4:00pm (EST)
The workshop will be presented by University of Ottawa professor Hussein Al Osman.
