Faculty
Prof. Stacey Scott, Director Dr. Scott is an Associate Professor in Computer Science at the University of Guelph and Adjunct Associate Professor in Systems Design Engineering at the University of Waterloo. She is also a Member of Waterloo's Games Institute. Her background is in human-computer interaction, computer-supported collaboration, and computer science. Her research focuses on developing technologies that enhance human-human interaction in computer-supported work and casual environments. She specializes in the design of digital tabletop computer systems for a wide variety of application domains, including tabletop gaming, military command and control, and emergency response. |
Postdoctoral Fellows
| This could be you! If you are a highly motivated graduating or recently graduated PhD student with expertise in the areas of HCI, Surface Computing, and/or Information Visualization, are great with people, and are seeking a Postdoctoral position, please contact the CSL Director, Dr. Stacey Scott (stacey.scott@uwaterloo.ca). |
Current Graduate Students
| | Leila Homaeian Leila is a PhD candidate in Systems Design Engineering. |
John Harris (PhD) John is a PhD student working with the University of Waterloo Games Institute under Professors Mark Hancock and Stacey Scott. He received a Master's degree in Computer Science from the University of Calgary and a Bachelors of Applied Science in Mechatronics Engineering from the University of Waterloo. John's work focuses on designing asymmetric games that engage with and appeal to multiple different types of players simultaneously. (Think grandparents with grandchildren, physical therapists with their patients, and action gamers with strategy enthusiasts). He is currently studying various forms of asymmetry in games (such as asymmetries of challenge, interface, responsibility, and information) and how designing games around these deliberate imbalances between players can actually help bring people together. | |
Mojgan Ghare (Master's) I am a M.A.Sc. candidate supervised by Dr. Stacey Scott in the department of Systems Design Engineering at the University of Waterloo. Previously, I got my M.A. and B.A. in Graphic Design from Tehran University of Art and Alzahra University. My research interest is Human-Computer Interaction from visual-communication perspective. I would like to investigate about different types of communication noises that avoid effective interaction with computer. I am also focused on finding visual elements that can boost interface design in term of sending various levels of information in a shorter period of time. |
