Human-Computer Interaction
first edition

Dix, Finlay, Abowd and Beale

resources



When the first edition of Human-Computer Interaction was launched in 1993, extensive teacher's materials were made available free to adopters of the text book through Prentice Hall agents world-wide. A 100 page bound teacher's book included answers to all exercises and also project suggestions. In addition, a complete set of OHP masters was available to those who adopted the book as course text.

These materials have also been available electronically by ftp in US letter and A4 format.

For the second edition these materials will be expanded significantly on our new web site and this will be the normal method of access. Until then, the existing first edition materials are still available by ftp.

FTP sites

Teaching materials for use with the book are available at ftp mirror sites in the US and UK. Choose the site which gives best response from your location.

Contents

At each site the resources are available in both US-letter and A4 format. There is no difference between the materials offered, except that they have been formatted slightly differently to print on different sized paper.

Each site has a README file containing copyright and general information and two subdirectories US-letter and a4 containing the corresponding versions of the materials.

In each subdirectory there is an electronic copy of the teacher's book (exercises.ps.Z), which contains exercise solutions, as well as teaching and project suggestions. There are also overhead transparencies for each chapter, and cover sheets. Most of the contents are in PostScript (slides.##.ps.Z), but some of the overhead slide masters are in RTF format from Microsoft Word (slides.##.rtf.Z). All files are compressed using UNIX compress.

Copyright

These materials is made available solely for use in conjunction with Human-Computer Interaction. They are NOT public domain and copyright remains with the authors.
