ahandrewh teaches IAT-334interface design

A domain to research

This week you will be wrapping up your heuristic evaluations, making recommendations, and getting started on exploring a domain for your final project.

P1 grades release

Grades will be released shortly. If you have any questions or concerns with your grades please follow-up with Andrew directly. Please email Andrew with a specific concern in relation to the project rubric(s).

Alfredo and Cynthia will not be able to talk about grades.

Next class

In our next class we will be:

• Holding critiques on P2, please bring your deliverables.
• Having our 'project pitch', please bring your sketching exercise deliverables.
• Forming teams for P3.
• Getting you started on P3.

Please come on-time and ready to participate as we will have a lot of ground to cover.

Sketching exercise

Just a clarification that the current sketching exercise is looking for you to find new problems to tackle. Looking at an existing interface and proposing new features for that is not appropriate for the exercise or the big interface design projects (P3/P4).

Reading reflections

There were a couple of questions about which reading reflections were still available. Still available are:

• Reflection #5 (June 26) based on "Culturally Responsive Experiences" (Akpem, 2020)
• Reflection #6 (July 10) based on "Persuasive Mechanisms" (Bowles, 2018)

Please note: The questions and prompts for the reading reflections may still change prior to the dates indicated above.

Office hours shift

Andrew's June 19th office hour will be shifted to 4:00 - 5:00pm due to a meeting conflict.

You are of course always welcome to email Andrew or message over the course chat to arrange an alternative time to meet.

Questions or concerns?

Of course should you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to email Andrew, email Alfredo, email Cynthia, or message on course chat and we will respond as quickly as possible.
