Practice on Design Project 15

Course title

Y0170015

Course description

In this exercise, students will learn to practice a wider range of design activities with respect to the issues presented, drawing on the content of the classes they have taken so far. For the issues presented, students will clarify the relevant factors, consider causal relationships, and devise concrete measures for solutions. In each process of the exercises, students gain an understanding of human sensitivity and behavior in order to realize communication between objects and humans (user interface), and then think about the total process from research, analysis, and planning to design, advertising, and sales methods, and link this to proposals. Proposals are based on this understanding, and designs are proposed that are appropriate to the needs of the user and the intended use of the product. Prototyping and evaluation are conducted in the process of study. Logical and objective explanations are required for concepts and deliverables.

Purpose of class

The purpose of this class is to acquire the basic viewpoints and behavioral skills as a design engineer by practically using the knowledge related to interface and content design acquired in the second year so far. In addition, students will acquire the ability to put into practice the methods and processes for interaction design.

Goals and objectives

Able to identify problems and set issues from a variety of information
Ability to design detailed and appropriate interaction designs
Ability to visually represent and present in a way that is easy to understand and communicate (panels, prototypes, etc.)

Language

Japanese(English accepted)
