Schedule: CSE 4663 / 6663 Human-Computer Interaction

The lectures are based on the chapters in Designing the User Interface but often introduce other material that you will also be responsible for in exams.  All dates and assignments are tentative except for the final exam date.  I will adjust this schedule as the semester progresses.
