Aim:
The student shall develop advanced knowledge in methods and theory for interaction design. After the course, the student shall be able to:
- Use methods and techniques for concept design and detailed design to define problems and alternative solutions for digital interactive products and services.
- Give an account of system objectives, and analyse design qualities and user experience for digital interactive products and services.
- Define purpose, content, and form for digital interactive products and services.
- Argue for one's interaction design ideas using multimedia, visualisations, or oral and written presentation.
- Summarise and analyse the meaning of concepts from interaction design and use them to analyse design work.

Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
User-centred design at basic level (courses like System Usability Issues, Interaction Design, Interactive Systems, Mobile and Social Applcations, User Driven Product Development or Product Ergonomics, or Create and Understand 3D), and programming at basic level (courses like Object Oriented Programming, Functional Programming, Imperative Programming or Introduction to
Programming) are required prerequisites.
Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Organisation:
The course circles around a sequence of assignments and design work that are concluded with seminars and examination sessions. Individual feedback on design work is given to support students' development beyond the basic level. Lectures are primarily used to introduce new areas. Some sessions are mandatory.

Course contents:
The students of this course develop advanced methodological and theoretical knowledge in design of digital interactive products and services. Design methods and reflection and criticism supported by theory is mixed with practical creative design work, sketching, prototyping and testing. The personal responsibility for one's design work in relation to constraints is discussed, as well as the designer's responsibility in society, and the possibility of innovation through active design strategy.
