Design |
Course Description
The purpose of this course is to learn
about the human-oriented process exemplified by design of web sites. This course
will take a user-centered approach to designing web sites and will focus on the
entire lifecycle of a web site, from the idea of creating a web site, through
requirements gathering, conceptual design, physical design, testing, and
implementation. By the end of the semester, students will be able to: define a
web site mission and target user population; collect the user requirements for a
web site; conceptually design an appropriate page and site design; prototype a
web site; perform usability testing of a web site in human factors/usability
lab; small industry-related application project.
