Human-computer interaction
learning how technology impacts us, and we impact it.
Description
You will learn a practical ux skillset to create a mobile app and think about ways to extend this using social media and big data. You will learn that we are all social psychologists and designers because of the world we live in. And, at the end of the course you will be able to design and speak with confidence about the interaction between people and the increasingly complex computer systems our modern culture demands, thus becoming an agent for change, yourself.
