This course focuses on laboratory experiments for testing an interactive system. Students will learn to define an experimental protocol: how to turn the phenomenon to study into a series of experiment tasks (operationalization), how to control potential biases in order to collect valid data. They will also learn good practices for setting up an experimental environment, and recruiting volunteers to participate in their experiment. The course also details how to collect data and how to analyze them in order to draw valid conclusions. It both introduces 1) theory about descriptive and inferential statistics and 2) practical tools for running statistical tests with R / Python and reporting analyses.
