  abstract =     "We describe the implementation of a six-week course to
                 teach Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) to high school
                 students. Our goal was to explore the potential of HCI
                 in motivating students to pursue future studies in
                 related computing fields. Participants in our course
                 learned to make connections between the types of
                 technology they use in their daily lives and the design
                 processes that went into creating these technologies.
                 We suggest that by portraying computing through the
                 lens of HCI, as an innovative, creative, and
                 challenging field with authentic, real-world
                 applications, we may be able to motivate students to
                 become more interested in computing.",
