Week 2: Interaction Design Process in Practice, 19.9.2016 ->
Finally, some tips for today's presentations:
- try to stick to 10 mins for the whole thing. You can stage it as you like: slides are not the only possible mode.
- tell about your process, not only the result. The research and findings from it are also interesting!
- would be great to see your process projected on the double diamond model. It might fit there, or might not, and that's the most intriguing part.

Here are the briefs for the two projects:
- Design a concept of a web service that will work as a study planning tool for MA students at the department of Design. Think about what kind of additional values this tool could have apart from similar paper forms.
- Design the wireframes and prototypes for the Learning Centre website based on the existing research findings. You can involve users to create better prototypes and test emerging ideas on the go.
