Abstract

Peer-evaluation is used to assess students' levels of comprehension of primary Human Computer Interaction (HCI) principles as implemented in a specific learning product - a website. Specifically, students demonstrate their knowledge and application of sixteen individual HCI components summarized into five scales by evaluating the design and implementation of their peers' website. Validation of student learning outcomes is achieved through an analysis of agreement between student peer and instructor evaluations of these websites.
