Introduction to Human-Computer Interaction.png

Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) is the study of the interaction between humans and computers and the design of computing technologies. It overlaps user-centered design, user interface design, and user experience design.

In this course, you will take a deep dive into HCI, so you can create designs that provide a fantastic user experience. More specifically, you learn the rules and principles behind the good and bad design as well as how to use design models to build interactive interfaces. In the latter half of the course, you’ll learn how to evaluate different models and how HCI is used in the real world.

Whether you are new to HCI or a professional, by the end of the course you will have a clear understanding of what it means to be a user and how to implement user-centered design for the best possible results.

Introduction to Human-Computer Interaction

## Introduction
In the past years, computers have made human life easier and more comfortable. They have now become an essential part of our daily lives, businesses, and economies. No doubt, we could survive without them, but certain tasks would be more difficult and far slower. Actually, it may be more rewarding to improve communication between humans and computers so that human-computer interactions become as simple as communicating with another human.
