Through the project module, the student gains insight into the development and programming of an interactive product for new, emerging digital technologies. A solution must be programmed to address an identified and described problem. The design aspects of a concept are worked on, and interaction is programmed for the digital platform. The programmed product must be demonstrable, and the product must be evaluated.

Learning objectives

Knowledge

• Must be able to demonstrate knowledge of new, emerging technologies and interaction with such technologies.
• Must be able to demonstrate knowledge of how interaction design can contribute to solving a problem where these technologies are part of the solution

Skills

• Must be able to analyze and evaluate an interactive design for new, emerging technologies.
• Must be able to program a concrete interactive design in a selected programming language.
• Must be able to demonstrate and document a coherent design concept through a functioning prototype

Competences

• Can argue for the properties and possibilities of the technology in relation to the developed interactive product.
• Can assess the potential future possibilities of the technology in an application and interaction context
