DIGD 200:Fundamentls of Web Programming
The purpose of this new course is to create an essential understanding of the HTML and CSS markup languages which is a key component to becoming an Interactive Designer. This course, which is a sophomore level core course in the newly revised Interactive Design & Development program will serve to give students a comprehensive understanding of how to produce functional web pages using HTML and CSS. Additionally, they will be instructed on how to debug their code, validate code, and cross-browser/device check for integrity across all platforms. These skills are a fundamental requirement which will continue to be reinforced and utilized throughout all of their courses in the program.
This course will be an exploration into the design process and techniques for creating interactive experiences. This will be first step in learning to think and work as a web designer. We will cover a basic understanding of information architecture, usability, front end programming logic, and design literacy. We will also discuss the principles of raster and vector electronic imaging as a means to provide a solid foundation needed to succeed in the digital design field.
This course exposes students to conceptual and technical aspects of Web design. Information architecture, semiotics, storyboarding and site management are taught; in addition to learning technical skills in Web production software and HTML. Additional areas of focus include typography, color theory, composition and motion graphics for the Web. The final project requires the publication of a Web site that pushes the boundaries of traditional interactive media.
This course exposes students to principles of basic digital photography, audio editing, and digital video design and production. Students will become versed in non-linear, video-editing software as a means to create effective digital media presentations. A series of projects develop essential skill sets such as storyboarding, basic photography & composition, audio/video capture, and editing
This course provides students with an active and deep survey of constructing an effective design portfolio through various means including: print, electronic PDF, community websites, and independent websites. Students will also develop resume & portfolio and participate in presentation and interviewing exercises. This course is recommended for design students in their junior year seeking internship and seniors seeking professional employment following graduation.
This course will explore the Web markup languages, HTML, CSS and Java Script, required for advanced control of Web design. Students will be introduced to these languages through lectures, demonstrations and practical exercises. The focus will be on writing, testing and de-bugging the code and its appropriate application. A series of increasingly complex exercises will gradually build the student?s knowledge and understanding of these languages.
(writing intensive) This course requires students to identify and analyze potential capstone projects through a number of lenses including technical feasibility, marketability and design potential. With faculty guidance, students will form interdisciplinary teams that reflect the specific requirements of the chosen capstone project. To complete this course, a project proposal must be submitted documenting the factors that will allow the development of a successful capstone project. Research and presentation skills are a major focus of this course.
