Part of the YH programme UX Designer 2024 at TUC Yrkeshögskola. This course cannot be applied for on its own. Programme code: UXDD24LIN.
The course Interaction Design gives you knowledge of how human characteristics affect the design of technical solutions and systems. You learn theories and methods in human-computer interaction (MDI) and how to start from the user's needs and wishes to create good design. The course covers how interfaces are used to make the user experience accessible and to guide it, with a focus on inclusive interaction design.
Duration: 9 weeks
Language: Swedish
Level: Advanced
CSN-eligible
Time commitment: Equivalent to approx. 9 weeks of full-time study
In the course, the student learns how human characteristics affect the design of technical solutions and systems. The course deals with theories and methods in the field of MDI (human-computer interaction). The course also covers how to start from the user's needs and wishes to create a good design, and how to use interfaces to make the user experience accessible and to guide it.
The course shall provide such knowledge that the student can understand how behavioural science theories relate to use and design.
