Description

This talk will present an overview of the process, findings, ideas,and products from the Masters of HCI Capstone Design Project course (05-671) this past year. This course ran from January through August, providing a complete end-to-end design experience bringing together all aspects of the HCI curriculum in a realistic and practical project. Work included contextual inquiries and other background work aimed at understanding a task domain and appropriate users, innovation and idea generation addressing important issues uncovered, and an intensive iterative development and testing phase which resulted in working prototypes. This talk will present a selection of results from these activities.
