Content and learning outcomes
Course contents
Intended learning outcomes
After passing the course, the student should be able to:
- explain and present design properties of interactive artifacts for different stakeholders
- carry out a smaller design project in a group (including basic project management)
- carry out formative usability tests of own prototypes
- apply a creativity technique (e.g. brainstormning)
- create paper prototypes and digital interactive prototypes
- based on a given design task discover and identify what characterises the intended target group and situation of usage
- identify and formulate usability requirements after completed field studies
- reflect on the strengths and weaknesses of their own design based on literature and own evaluations
in order to
- be able to use design methods that support the development of useful systems.
- prepare the student for further studies in the area.
