The assessment is carried out as partial exams (according to Section 4 (2), 1-3 SPO) of the core course and further single courses of this module, whose sum of credits must meet the minimum requirement of credits of this module. The assessment procedures are described for each course of the module separately.

The student

• has a comprehensive understanding of conceptual and theoretical foundations of interactive systems
• knows design processes for interactive systems
• is aware of the most important techniques and tools for designing interactive systems and knows how to apply them to real-world problems
• is able to apply design principles for the design of most important classes of interactive systems,
• creates new solutions of interactive systems teams

In this module, the courses "Designing Interactive Systems" or "Enineering Interactive Systems" must be compulsorily taken.

Advanced information and communication technologies make interactive systems ever-present in the users’ private and business life. They are an integral part of smartphones, devices in the smart home, mobility vehicles as well as at the working place in production and administration (e.g. in the form of dashboards).

With the continuous growing capabilities of computers, the design of the interaction between human and computer becomes even more important. This module focuses on design processes and principles for interactive systems. The contents of the module abstract from the technical implementation details and focus on foundational concepts, theories, practices and methods for the design of interactive systems. The students get the necessary knowledge to guide the successful implementation of interactive systems in business and private life.

Each lecture in the module is accompanied with a capstone project that is carried out with an industry partner.

The total workload for this module is approximately 270 hours.
