Abstract

Knowledge of fundamentals of human-computer interaction resp. usability engineering is getting more and more important in technical domains. However this interdisciplinary field of work and corresponding degree programs are not broadly known. Therefore at the Hochschule Ruhr West, University of Applied Sciences, a program was developed to give teen-aged pupils insights into this area in a project-based learning environment with professional tools. Within the last 18 month this project was successfully conducted several times with participants of different age. (Contains 3 figures.)
