As described in the syllabus, to get grad credit for this course (by registering for CMSC 838B), students must do the following things:
  • Read the research papers that I assign below, and write a 200-400 word synopsis of each one.  Submit them on paper in class on the date due.

  • Make a 5 minute presentation to the class summarizing one research paper that you read.

  • Build a research prototype exploring a new interface idea, or replicating existing work described in the literature

  • Write a (8 page, CHI format) paper summarizing the research field in an area related to this class.

The papers are the following:
