This course introduces the design of the human computer interface coupled with traditional graphical design concepts applied to the creation of dynamic digital tools. Concepts are applied to multimedia and hypermedia products and the related print-based materials normally associated with them. Students learn graphic design, interface design, and information design to create effective and visually stimulating communication devices using multimedia and hypermedia tools. This course introduces the theory of human computer interface design. Students focus on major theoretical research in the area of HCI and focus on designing interfaces and interface components.
Emphasis is placed on interfaces for multimedia and hypermedia products.
Study of graphic solutions to problems conditioned by traditional and emerging construction document standards. Students will produce graphics using sketching and computer-assisted processes. Principles of document standards applied to creation and distribution within the construction enterprise. Construction documents are created as products of a computer model database. Course topics will be determined by the computer graphics faculty.
