Taught By: Fred Murhammer
Section: A

CRN: 2100

Credits: 3

In this course students will be introduced to programming as a creative medium— as a way of making and exploring. The coursework focuses on developing a vocabulary of interaction design principles which can then be applied across a range of platforms. Students are encouraged to experiment with various media, tools, and techniques, ultimately producing a portfolio of interactive and visual projects designed for the screen. An emphasis is placed on typography as it applies to a screen context, research-based problem solving and a learning-through-making approach to technical skill building. Historical and current interaction design precedents will be discussed. This course is intended for non-communication design majors, as an introduction to the discipline.

Note: this course was previously offered under the title Web Design Basics. Open to: All university undergraduate degree students, except BFA Communication Design majors.
