I've started publishing my “Introduction to human-computer interaction” slides as CC-licensed reusable teaching material. (My #OER debut!)

fietkau.science/teaching/intro

I've been wanting to share these for more than a year. Doing that all at once felt insurmountable, so now I'm putting them up piece by piece over the summer. 🙂 Two out of 15 sections are up and public now, feel free to browse!

If you follow me for fediverse stuff: this is my day job. 😄
