Exploration of different digital media tools and artifacts
Through three modules based on user experience and interaction design, the course will enable students to engage with different digital media tools and artifacts.
Students of this course will learn and reflect on three critical areas of Digital Media: Information Architecture, Interaction Gestalts, and Information Platforms. Students will also gain first-hand experience with developing Digital Media prototypes and studies to build basic coding and interaction skills.
Demonstrate proficiency in digital media, including but not limited to interaction design tools and methodology.
