A combined introductory course on humancomputer interaction and computer graphics
In this paper, we report on five years of teaching experience with our introductory course Graphical-Interactive Systems, which covers basic topics of humancomputer interaction and computer graphics for students in the third year of their major in computer science. Although the two fields of humancomputer interaction and computer graphics are usually taught in different courses, we believe that they have much in common and can therefore be integrated into a combined course. Graphical-Interactive Systems builds a foundation for advanced courses in both disciplines and achieves an efficient use of teaching time due to synergy effects.
