IXD STUDIO I: PROG FOR DESIGN

Instructor: Evans
Department: GRADUATE CREDIT
Credits: 3   Instruction Method: HYB
Status: OPEN

Based on a foundation of web technologies, this class teaches students the concepts and use of programing languages in order to complement and extend their capabilities as designers. Students will learn how to think like a computer and to structure code (functions and algorithms, not markup) to perform data manipulation tasks, to enable user interaction that incorporate devise and services, and to gain facility across multiple programming languages. As a result, students will better understand the strengths and limitations of digital systems and therefore how programming may enhance (or limit) the goals of their interaction designs. The course will serve as a solid starting point for students looking to go into mobile app development, physical computing and IoT, or web development.
