Learning outcomes |
The objective of this course is that the student develops skills that allow him to understand the stages of the interaction design process and use the main techniques in the construction of web-oriented projects.
At the end of the semester the student should be able to:
- Understand the historical framework of interaction design;
- Understand the concept of interaction design and distinguish it from similar concepts;
- Understand web design;
- Apply a visual language that is appropriate to the concepts and practices of web design;
- Approach in a creative way the common tools of the area;
- Investigate the relationship between technology, design, usability and concept;
- Master the necessary support instruments for the construction of interactive projects in different media;
- Plan, develop and execute the project process with autonomy and critical sense.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
In this theoretical-practical course unit, expository classes will be used to present the syllabus using audiovisual elements. The presentation of projects considered exemplary, followed by debate, acts as a starting point for the projects and as a principle of research to be developed in the course. The projects of the discipline will be followed up with the students. The discussion and critical evaluation of the results of the work will be done throughout the semester.
