You must NOT submit a paper copy of this coursework. 1 If no submissions were made before the deadline, coursework submitted up to two weeks late that meets the criteria for a pass will be treated as a referral.
It will be subject to university regulations for referral work. Coursework submitted late without an Extenuating Circumstances claim will receive a ZERO grade. 3 If you have extenuating circumstances you may submit your coursework up to two weeks after the published deadline without penalty but this is subject to acceptance of your lain by the School Extenuating Circumstances Panel. If your claim is rejected then you will receive a zero grade for your work.
4 Coursework submitted more than two weeks late will be given feedback but a grade of non-submission will be awarded regardless of any extenuating circumstances.However, if your Extenuating Circumstances claim is accepted then the Extenuating Circumstances Panel will recommend to the Progression and Award Board that you be permitted to retake a different item of assessment at a future assessment point. 5 All coursework must be submitted as above. Detailed Specification The coursework is an individual piece of work. Scenario Jon Kola (2007) in his book "Thoughts on Interaction Design" states that "It is now time to extract design from the confines of business and allow it to grow on its own.
Positioned as social entrepreneurship, social innovation, or the new design, designers are fundamental in structuring a world worth living in. Human behavior is innately poetic; it is natural and thus resonates poetic in the same way as does a flower, or a bird, or a tree. It is through our own design of objects, services, and systems that we may have disturbed the poetry. A focus on technology or aesthetics alone creates a world of ideas that often seems discretely disconnected from humanity.
Through the combination of technology, aesthetics, and humanity, we will find a world of Interaction Design.And Interaction Design, as the study of dialogue between people and things, will bring harmony to technological advancement. " Your task is to design a high fidelity multimedia prototype that takes into consideration the current key issues for interaction designers including cognitive psychology, established standards and guidelines, design principles, methodologies and evaluation techniques. The accompanying report should explain in detail the development process and critical evaluation of the final high fidelity prototype produced.The high fidelity prototype applet will be for a mobile phone or tablet that provides a welcome to your institution for new students.
This should cover the essential information they need to know which may be found on either on the University of Greenwich website or on your institution's website. Deliverables Report uploaded as a PDF file. Grading Criteria To gain a distinctive grade (70+) The report will a) have a clear structure and coherent argument throughout, address all the squired areas, clearly identifying the key issues and displaying critical analysis; b) offer full support for all points made.The report to be well written throughout, and fully adequate to express ideas. The high fidelity prototype will be well constructed and linked exactly to the points made in the report. To gain a grade between 60-69 required areas, clearly identifying the key issue and displaying critical analysis; b) offer support for most of the points made.
The report to be largely well written throughout, and adequate to express ideas. The To gain a grade between 50-59 ) show some attempt at a clear structure and critical analysis although the line of argument may not always be clear and coherent.All of the required areas are attempted. B) offer some support for the points made. The report may not be well written, but will be adequate to express ideas.
The high fidelity prototype will link to the majority of the points made in the report. To gain a grade between 40-49 a) be badly organized and the line of argument will be unclear and incoherent. There will be a significant amount of irrelevant material; most of the required areas will be attempted. ) offer inadequate support for the points made. The high fidelity prototype will link to some of the points made in the report.To fail a) show little or no shape or direction, be badly organized and the line of argument unclear and incoherent.
Very few key issues will be identified and there will be a significant amount of irrelevant material. Only a couple of the required areas will be attempted. B) offer little or no support for the points made. The report will not be well written, language will be inadequate to express ideas. The high fidelity prototype will either not be attempted or bear little resemblance to the mints made in the report.
Assessment Criteria The relative weightings for the criteria are as follows and will take into consideration the student demonstration of their work: Report Logical structure 5% Evidence of how cognitive psychology influences the way users will interact with the system Effective use of established design principles and methodologies Inclusion and rationale for the use of multimedia applications Support for the points made Evaluation Standard of writing and language to express ideas.
