    The exam was arranged in MyCourses as an online exam,  an "exam assignment". It opened (became visible) at 09:00 and ended at 12 o'clock noon. The normal Zoom link of the lectures was used during the exam for communication about possible technical issues.

    The completion of the course consists of lecture materials, coursebook and written materials (available also online), individual and group assignments, and the open-book/online exam. For creating the groups for the group assignments, please register your name/group using the wiki document ("GROUPS").

    Learning Outcomes 

    At this course the students learn user interface and interaction design. After completing the course, students are able to develop an interactive user interface that can be used as a prototype (for further elaboration with users and customers) or an interactive application for usability testing. Students get to know how to use user-centred principles, guidelines and patterns in the design and implementation of user interfaces.

     
    Content 

    The design and construction of interactive user interfaces. Use of basic user interface elements and style guides.

     
    Assessment Methods and Criteria 

    Lectures and examination, exercises.
