IXDGR-6300: IxD Studio: Prototyping

Course Description

This course will introduce and explore all aspects of prototyping as it relates to interaction design. Prototyping tools will be introduced from low fidelity to high, from sketching to digital to interactive. The act of prototyping is as much a process of the mind as of the hands, and therefore this course will intorduce both the mindset and the methods of the dynamic prototyping process. Students will also be introduced to meta-learning, a capacity that is critical to the designer's ability to keep up and evolve as tools and processes do. Finally students will learn basic techniques to evaluate design effectiveness in the real world and to evolve their designs through iteration.
