Digital Service PrototypingLaajuus (5 cr)

Learning objectives

Upon successful completion of this course, the student is able to
- apply brainstorming techniques
- systematically and purposefully use prototypes in the construction of digital services
- design a digital service visual user interface
- apply the techniques used to build prototypes.
- validate the prototype he has built using different test methods.
Furthermore, student learn the usability evaluations methods and approaches

Contents

Topics to be covered in the course include the following:
- Iterative design (lo/hi fidelity)
- Graphical User Interface (UI design principles)
- Tools for prototyping (Semi functional prototyping tools)
- Usability Evaluations and inspections
** Test Cases
** Test Plan

Implementation methods, demonstration and Work&Study

This course learning outcomes can be achieved in the following ways:

a. Lectures and independent work.

b. E-learning and independent work.

c. Workplace-based learning (suom. RPL).

The course also includes a mandatory assessment of their own learning.

Assessment criteria - grade 1

When the implementation type of the course is contact, online or blended it is required that the student is present during those teaching hours that are marked in the study schedule. If you are absent more than 25 %, your grade will be lowered by one. If you are absent more than 50 %, the course is failed.

The student understands the importance of prototyping in the design of a digital service and is able to use prototyping tools to implement a rudimentary prototype.

Assessment criteria - grade 3

The student is able to use prototyping as a systematic method and implement a prototype of a justified digital service with the help of prototyping tools. The student is able to justify the functionality of the hypotheses he / she has made in the design with the help of the data collected by the prototype.

Assessment criteria - grade 5

The student is able to use prototyping in a versatile way as a systematic method and to collect credible data to validate his hypotheses. The student is able to implement a visually finished and technically extensive prototype for a digital service.

Assessment criteria, approved/failed

The approved course is assessed on a scale of 1-5
