Structure

The course will start as with lecture by the professor on the core readings. The last part of the class will be presentations by the students on additional readings. Participation in class discussion by all students is expected in both cases, and students should do the core readings before the lectures. The additional readings are mandatory only for the student presenter for the topic, and are optional for the rest of the class. Attendance in class is also expected, if you must miss class inform the professor via email with an explanation.

Grades in the course will be determined by

45% project
30% presentations
15% class participation
10% assignments

There will be no final examination in this course, final project presentations will be in a 3-hour slot during exams (April 21).

Prerequisites

There are no formal prerequisites, but a background in computer graphics and HCI (human-computer interaction) is very helpful. There is one additional required background reading for those who have not had an HCI course.
