Prof: Irene Ye Yuan / Fall 2023

Comments on the course

Course is organized, and the prof makes announcements for reminders. Does not have a midterm or exam!! Lots of group stuff though.

Course Content

Course content is about Human Centered Interface, which is what makes the difference between a website/app/device that people would prefer to use and are comfortable using vs a website/app/device that makes you frustrated, even if both are completely functional. I personally think it's essential for all types of engineering that have to do with an end user. It teaches you to make designs that "just make sense" and that the interface being functional isn't enough.

Comments on the professor

Professor Yuan is very nice. She records lectures and has good slides. She's also responsive and explains things well in my opinion.

Advice

I thought it would be boring and useless but I'm liking it more than some of my other courses. Tutorial sections fill up pretty fast though so if you have a group you want to work with I'd suggest agreeing on a tutorial section from the beginning and enrolling in that section as fast as you can. For our year, the textbook sort of repeats the same things in lectures but is also enjoyable to read and it's available to borrow online (as epub or pdf) through the McMaster Library Catalogue.
