  abstract =     "This paper describes a course that addresses two
                 important issues: introducing interface design and
                 programming at the same time as helping students
                 develop life-long learning skills. Many computer
                 science programmes could well be based on the
                 assumption that the computing world is still oriented
                 towards batch processing. Yet, interactive systems are
                 central to information technology and the interface to
                 a system is very important. Our courses introduces
                 students to this area. At the same time, programming
                 tools for building interfaces are an excellent example
                 of very fast changing technology. Our course explicitly
                 aims to help students learn to how to learn about such
                 tools. The course is based on the approach called
                 problem-based learning: the need to solve an authentic
                 problem drives the definition of appropriate learning
                 goals and strategies. An unusual feature of the course
                 is the interweaving of the learning about programming
                 tools and the classic skiIls of user interface design.
                 We describe our course and its evaluation in a class of
                 over 100 senior year undergraduate computer science
                 students.",
