6 A Typical Program of Study Semester 1: Systems analysis* Information organization* Internet applications Introduction to programming Semester 3: Management* Seminar in HCI Web programming I Research methods* Semester 2: Information retrieval* Human information interactions* Database systems User interface design Semester 4: Advanced internet applications Web programming II Distributed systems Masters’ thesis* * Required course

7 User Interface Design www.ils.unc.edu/classes/inls257_sp03/257-home.S03.htm Introduction (1 week) Humans as system users (2 weeks) Task analysis and description (2.5 weeks) Developing a design (1 week) Specifying the design in a prototype (3.5 weeks) Includes prototype demos Evaluating the design (4 weeks) Usability inspection Usability testing

8 User Interface Design: Assignments Design Project User analysis Task analysis Design decisions, documented Prototype with documentation Usability inspection Of a classmate’s design project Usability testing Study proposal

9 User Interface Design: “Show and Tell” Student-led discussions of artifacts

10 Seminar in HCI www.ils.unc.edu/~march/courses/357_f02/syllabus.html Information interaction perspective The problem of information seeking The AgileViews framework Representations and mechanisms (4 weeks) Usability and universal access Physiological data collection: eye tracking & biometrics Interaction trends

11 How is it different in ILS? Types of systems Emphasis on IR and database systems Types of organizations/contexts Not focused on corporations Emphasis on libraries for MSLS students Accreditation requirements ALA, not AACSB
