Those of you who would like to receive 6 CP for the module "Interdisciplinary Aspects of Geographic Information Science" will need to write an additional section in their final report.

In this course, we will focus on methods that can be used to develop and evaluate interactive systems with users. We will cover basic concepts such as experimental research in general, statistical analysis and experimental design.  In addition the course will introduce you to more specific themes such as surveys and their design, qualitative and quantitative methods, as well as issues relating to working with human subjects. The lecture component will cover the theoretical aspects of these topics where as the practical exercise will enable you to work with the methods discussed.  To successfully participate in the course, you will need to participate in the practical exercises and submit a final report on the application of one of the methods discussed. 

The course will be based on the book ‘Research methods in human-computer interaction’ by J. Lazar, J.H. Feng and H. Hochheiser.
