In your first weeks in the Interaction Programme, you will be
introduced to the basic tools and workshop skills you will utilize
during the rest of your time at UID. In addition to this
introduction, other skills and methods courses are provided during
your studies. Some examples of this are:
Interaction Design Methods
Our courses in interaction design methods are integrated
into the three major term projects to ensure reciprocity between
theory and practice. The courses run parallel to project work and
give you the opportunity of relating specific design methods to
concrete project work.
Literature Circle
A weekly meeting held throughout the first year of the program,
where you will be responsible for reading, presenting, and
discussing articles selected to provide you with an overview of the
current discourses taking place within Interaction Design research
and practice.
Introduction to Experience
Prototyping
Held throughout your first semester, you will be introduced to the
basics of prototyping with electronics, from learning how to solder
and light up an LED, to programming motors with arduino and making
sketches in processing.
