Abstract

A recent survey by Leventhal and Mynatt (1987) has suggested that user interface issues have become one of the major topics in undergraduate software engineering courses. In their view, this emphasis potentially presents numerous difficulties for the software engineering educator. In particular, issues of instructor training and availability of suitable materials arise as problem areas. In order to more effectively incorporate user interface concepts into undergraduate software engineering courses, a compact body of material has been developed. This body of material incorporates both practical guidelines to interface design, and discussion of a major theoretical issue in interface design. The material is described in some detail, and observations about its usefulness are included.
