Meanwhile Back at GTL...

The real reason for our stay in Metz this spring is my teaching at Georgia Tech - Lorraine. In addition to teaching courses on natural language processing and on empirical methods in human-computer interaction, I'm working with two GT graduate students, Joseph Rhodes and James Wert, on a model of animation in user interfaces. Here's a photo of the three of us in a research workshop earlier this week, where we refined the model and used it to design two versions of an interface for an MP3 player, one "intuitive" and one "counter-intuitive."
