PhD Seminar • Human-Computer Interaction — Research Design for Human-Computer Interaction studies

Thursday, April 18, 2019 3:00 pm - 3:00 pm EDT (GMT -04:00)

Gustavo Fortes Tondello, PhD candidate
The Games Institute, HCI Games Group
David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science

Based on his experiences, Gustavo will talk about how to prepare and conduct graduate studies in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), presenting tips about how to choose topics and plan studies and publications. More specifically, he will share suggestions on how to plan and carry out experimental studies in HCI, such as how to choose and define research questions, how to select a type of study, and how to document the results and prepare them for publication.

Although the talk is more directed at students starting as HCI researchers, experienced students are also invited to participate and share their own experiences and tips during the discussion period.
