During the Spring 1998 semester, several student teams conducted empirical studies of user interfaces as their term-length project in Computer Science 434: Human Factors in Computer and Information Systems taught by Dr. Ben Shneiderman, Director, Human-Computer Interaction Lab. The online reports of these projects include links to previous research and related topics. Several teams produced their online version according to a template based upon the work done by previous CMSC 434 classes.
