Description:
This course examines the fundamental principles and materials underlying the interactions between people, artifacts, and systems. Course work will introduce students to a variety of new tools and techniques that will facilitate the crafting of design interactions from user interfaces to user experiences. Through the design of interactive canvases such as mobile, desktop, car, game, console, kiosk, and apps, students gain an appreciation for the application of interaction design principles and tools and their respective strengths and weaknesses. In this course students experience hands-on making through early prototyping, exploring concepts with real people, communicating visually to explore concepts and presenting work in a professional manner. By examining existing situations and objects, and, using newly acquired interaction design sensibilities and vocabularies, students will begin to develop their own contextualized design perspectives and devise new solutions and strategies for addressing contemporary design issues.
