We begin this introduction to this first of two complementary volumes by providing a general context for both volumes and by giving a brief historical view of management information systems (MIS) scholars’ interest in human-computer interaction (HCI) research. We then integrate various HCI issues into an overarching framework that can encompass broad HCI concerns from multiple disciplines. Afte...

Although human-computer interaction (HCI) has been developing for thirty years, the field has advanced slowly due to a lack of knowledge about HCI structure. This research thus seeks to explore and clarify HCI intellectual structure. Data collected from the ISI Web of Knowledge totaled 1,168 HCI related articles, and 33,724 references were identified. There were 75 highly cited research article...

In this paper, an overview of different kinds of approaches in phenomenology, philosophy and many more concerning Human Computer Interaction (HCI) are shortly introduced. The outreach as well as complexity of computer technology has grown during the last decades, so that many people working with computers are not necessarily in this same profession. Therefore it has gotten more important to con...

The HCI community has long been accused of delivering ‘common sense’, ‘useless’ information, and to be ignorant of business needs. HCI experts are also criticized for failing to provide or apply theory-based techniques. This paper shows that the two goals may be incompatible. It discusses one case study in which HCI data intended for one purpose were inappropriately applied to support another. ...

The practice of teaching and learning Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) design has to develop its own approaches that balance method and technology use with reflective and situated practice. We present our HCI design studio course that makes a combined use of constructivist pedagogies and virtual worlds aiming to aid students reflect on the use of related methods and technologies in design and t...

International development is concerned with making life better for the least privileged people of the world. Since the 1990s, HCI has engaged increasingly with development through an interdisciplinary field known as “information and communication technologies for development,” or ICT4D. This article overviews the historical relationship between HCI and international development, compares their ...
