Academic Readings for an Interaction Designer #1
Original post: asbjornmejlvang.com(Better formatted)
I live in Denmark and is able to take an education for free. I am currently studying Digital Design and Interactive Technologies on the IT Univercity of Copenhagen. I know education can be really expensive in other countries so I have decided to upload my curriculum ( in the end of the post) from my first semester of my masters (Fall of 2018). This will give people an insight to what we learn about design on a university that you properly don’t learn on more hands-on sites like codeacademy or lynda. If you find a text you wan’t to read you have to search for it. I can’t share them due to copyrights, but I am confident most of them exist somewhere on the web.
On my first semester I had the following 3 courses. Here is the learning goals for each and the curriculums.
Advanced Design Processes
• plan, conduct and reflect on digital design processes from a design theoretical foundation
• choose between appropriate design methods and techniques based on knowledge about the context of use and type of design process
• discuss and reflect on the use of analytic and practical design tools in the process in a user-oriented design perspective
• develop and analyze functional prototypes and reflect on the use of interactive technologies as a design material
• present findings from the design process, argue for, evaluate and critically assess the value of their design to an academic and professional audience
- use the insights from the process to reflect on the development of their own design ability
Users in Context
• relate the use of digital media platforms, services and designs to a broader historical context and the cultural history of digital technologies
• discuss different theoretical perspectives on social services and user cultures
• account for relevant methodological approaches to the study of users in context, including ethical considerations
• independently select the most relevant theories and methods for use in their own case study, and in continuation thereof independent selection and present an original research question and research design
- systematically analyze own-found empirical data using the concepts, theories and methods they have acquired in the course
Prototyping Interactive Technologies
• Use current industry-standard mobile application prototyping tools and frameworks in the design for mobile interaction
• Apply standard design guidelines and best practices in the prototyping for mobile interaction
• Apply Usability and User Experience design principles and methods in the prototyping for mobile interaction
- Analyze and discuss mobile interaction and mobile practices as part of rich physical and social settings
