Innledning
This course on interactive information retrieval (IIR) focuses on users' use and interaction with information systems and the users' satisfaction with retrieved information. The course deals with central concepts and models as well as theoretical and methodical aspects of context-based evaluation of IIR. Emphasis is placed on the relations between users, information needs, information situations, relevance of retrieved information, and information seeking behaviour. In particular, the course focuses on methods and study designs (methodology) for how to study users' system interaction, their satisfaction with retrieved information, and information seeking behaviour.
In summary, the course covers:
- Conceptions of information need and relevance, as well as models of information searching, information seeking, and information behaviour.
- (I)IR evaluation approaches.
- Data collection methods and study design for (I)IR evaluation and user studies.
The teaching language is in English when there are foreign exchange students present.
