All CoC courses

The majority of readings listed below are chapters or sections from our textbook, Designing the User Interface, 3rd edition, by Ben Shneiderman, Addison-Wesley, 1998. As you can see, we will be skipping around in terms of reading assignments, so keep up and listen in class for any changes or modifications. We also will use the book The Design of Everyday Things by Don Norman as a second course text. A number of supplementary readings will be passed out in class as well. There is no excuse for ignorance of the assigned reading material.
