This page contains individual faculty member's suggested courses of study for speicifc student outcomes.

* Goals: attract students

We decided to dispense with streams in the meeting of July 20, therefore allowing us opportunity for more synergistic undergrad classes. Thus, the charge was to bring 4-5 ideas for courses that could bridge streams -- that is, to be synergistic.

* Increase SIAT visibility
+
One idea, for instance, is an Interface Design class or an HCI class that would serve all the students of (formerly) TAD and ID. To repeat, students in both streams would now be in ONE class instead of two separate classes.

Student Pathways Page

DGr: This page contains individual faculty member's suggested courses of study for speicifc student outcomes.

We decided to dispense with streams in the meeting of July 20, therefore allowing us opportunity for more synergistic undergrad classes. Thus, the charge was to bring 4-5 ideas for courses that could bridge streams -- that is, to be synergistic. One idea, for instance, is an Interface Design class or an HCI class that would serve all the students of (formerly) TAD and ID. To repeat, students in both streams would now be in ONE class instead of two separate classes.

Perhaps I was not clear, as the results are the same classes that we've long been discussing, each arising from a stream.


Upper Division Classes

[note: I took the liberty of numbering the courses. This makes it easier to represent paths (see below). I also renamed the courses to "Upper Division" rather than "Year Three" - Ron]

Media:

  • 1. narrative
  • 2. video
  • 3. advanced video
  • 4. animation
  • 5. game design


Interaction Design

  • 6. interface design

Advanced interface design beginning with the advent of visual communications and moving type to interfaces for desktop, mobile, and large-scale applications. (RWakkary). Cultural scales of audience and production of use-value + Joy-of-use factors in designed experiences. Application of diverse theoretical and research areas to form new syntheses. Thinking in big picture mode for design of new products (i.e. Sustainability). (R.Taylor)

  • 7. interaction design(2) methods

Examines the conceptual frameworks for understanding human action and context in organizational design situations. This course assigns small teams to design with industry, non-profit, and government organizations. (RWakkary)
