Abstract
The area of Human Computer Interaction (HCI) has acquired great importance in the last decade, its main objective is to increase the quality of interaction between the user and information technology. Constantly emerging technological changes and therefore there is a need for educational content and more research in the field of IHC, one of the main complications in Latin America is the access, availability, and cost of books in Spanish language. As a way of responding to this problematic this paper applies a collaborative production process of open textbooks and matching effort to teachers and researchers from Latin America to provide a textbook for IHC community in Spanish. Also seeks that they continue the sharing of experiences in the field of IHC to follow continuous improvement in production processes open textbooks at Latin America.
