ABSTRACT
Research methods are a foundational part of an education in human-computer interaction. This education is not always provided, and what training is available may not always be focused on the most relevant topics for this diverse field. This course aims to survey research methods relevant to psychology, human factors, computer science, and engineering. This course is suitable for those with limited background in research, and can benefit those with substantial experience. This course aims to provide exposure to many relevant topics and inspire attendees to delve deeper and hone their craft with this course as an introduction.
