Human-Computer Experience Design Studio
DECO3200
This studio offers a context for students at the end of their Design Computing degree to apply design, technical and creative methods to the production of high-quality group work, with a strong focus on the development of high-impact portfolios. Students will cover the principles of user-centered design in the context of new product development, and will engage with new technologies for networked social interaction, data and digital media programming APIs, and mobile and physical computing. Assignments will take the form of flexible group projects with major artistic and commercial outcomes, and as well as the outcomes themselves students will be required to produce reports and presentations on their contribution to projects.The unit of study aims to graduate the students from the degree with the confidence to apply their design computing and digital media skills to a wide array of design problems that they may encounter in various industries. Upon completion of this unit of study, students will have demonstrated the capacity to investigate and integrate advanced design computing technologies into the design of objects with embedded information content and intelligence. The unit of study also reinforces the students' experiences in designing through reflection-in-action of the design process.This unit is core for the Bachelor of Design Computing.
