[Save the date] UI Engineering Live Talks - Célia Martinie - May 26, 14:00 CET

by Davide Spano

Dear colleagues, we are starting a new activity at the IFIP WG 2.7/13.4: the UI-Engineering Live Talks. The group will organize a bimonthly webinar given by a group member or by an invited expert. Group members will participate in the online meetings, while the live stream on YouTube will be publicly available. Our group member Célia Martinie will give the inaugural talk on the 26th of May at 14:00 CET. We would be delighted by your participation. Title: Considering modelling techniques in HCI engineering education Speaker: Célia Martinie, IRIT, France Link: https://www.youtube.com/live/WKkEGSON1AM?feature=share Abstract: Teaching HCI requires to take into account the field’s diverse perspectives (e.g. interaction design, human factors, software development…), as well as its constant state of change (e.g. new contexts, new devices, new programming languages…). Teaching HCI engineering particularly focuses on preparing students to the design, development and implementation of usable and effective interactive computing systems. Amongst the engineering approaches that can be taught for that purpose, model-based techniques are interesting because they match the industry needs for techniques to develop usable and reliable interactive computing systems. Beyond this concrete motivation for teaching students how to build and use models, models are also interesting because they help students to reason and understand problems, and can even make them better at identifying and solving problems. However, students do not always understand the benefits of using modelling techniques, and can find them abstract, cumbersome and worthless to use. The purpose of this presentation is to discuss the importance of teaching modelling for HCI engineering, especially in a context where new technologies and new methodology trends are continuously emerging. Several strategies can be envisioned to increase the involvement of students with modelling techniques and I will detail one possible strategy. -- [image: photo] Prof. Lucio Davide Spano Dipartimento di Matematica e Informatica Università di Cagliari Via Ospedale 72, 09124, Cagliari, Italy Tel: +39 070 675 8760 Website <https://www.unica.it/unica/page/it/luciod_spano> | RG <https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Lucio_Spano> | ORCHID <https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7106-0463>
