For this assignment, you will produce HTML/CSS web pages that documents your perspective on how human-computer interaction (HCI) and human-computer cooperation (HCC) are or could be applied in your field of interest. We will be working on this during class time and leveraging what you are learning in the online modules.
- Watch this video from Shyam Sankar (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. about the value of human-computer cooperation.
- We’ll discuss key concepts in HCI during class. Use your notes from that and other work as a reference on HCI
- HCC. For HCC, describe an application of computing where computing power complements human skill to do something amazing. Research applications of computing in your field of interest and find a compelling example of how computing coupled with human skill provides great value.
- HCI. For HCI, take an example of an application in your field of interest and describe how poor design can negatively impact the user.
- In an HTML/CSS, clearly describe these two applications of computing and the value it brings. (Around 2 paragraphs each)

you use such as images. You can embed the CSS in each page or create a separate
CSS document as described in the Lynda.com modules.
