Preparing a presentation

Abstract

You are developing a Human Factors curriculum and you have dictatorial control. What will you do? I myself might count on the CHI Curriculum Committee to produce something soon enough to help structure the course content, and focus my attention elsewhere. For example, I would require that each term, students use a different computer system and a different set of applications to write programs and papers, run experiments, analyze data, record notes, etc. At the end of each term they are to deliver a written account of their experiences with the system, free to gather observations (or data) from their classmates. One graduation requirement would be a paper synthesizing these experiences.
