Crafting a good user experience requires skills in several disciplines. Few people have this breadth of knowledge, and undergraduate computer science students are no exception. Encouraging computer science students to appreciate the ways that other disciplines contribute to Human Computer Interaction is important, yet difficult. Our students learn about this disciplinary interdependence through peer teaching as part of a group project. Each group contains students with complementary skills and we expect a transfer of knowledge. Here we discuss the educational theory behind the project, the project's essential elements and an evaluation of how it aids learning. The model we have developed could be easily adapted for other courses which draw on diverse skills.
