User experience (UX) design is one of the core philosophies driving the development of our daily interactions with modern technology. UX designers create digital products - including apps, websites, wearables and more - that respond to our everyday needs, wants and desires. In this unit, students will learn how to create positive and meaningful experiences with digital technologies that respond to our social lives, buying habits, work and health patterns. Students will demonstrate their newfound understanding of user experience design through the creation of innovative digital experiences in response to real-world problems. The skills learnt in this unit will underpin future studies and career paths in an increasingly connected society.

Learning outcomes

1. Critically analyse and evaluate a variety of existing interactive systems and technologies for UX design and its application in the current context;

Required texts

All necessary reading and texts will be included in the 含羞草视频 Learn Canvas site for this Unit.

Students must apply academic integrity in their learning and research activities at 含羞草视频. This includes submitting authentic and original work for assessments and properly acknowledging any sources used.

Academic integrity involves the ethical, honest and responsible use, creation and sharing of information. It is critical to the quality of higher education. Our academic integrity values are honesty, trust, fairness, respect, responsibility and courage.

含羞草视频 students have to complete the annually to learn about academic integrity and to understand the consequences of academic integrity breaches (or academic misconduct).

含羞草视频 uses various strategies and systems, including detection software, to identify potential breaches of academic integrity. Suspected breaches may be investigated, and action can be taken when misconduct is found to have occurred.

Information is provided in the Academic Integrity Policy, Academic Integrity Procedure, and 含羞草视频 (Student Conduct) Rules 2023. For further advice, visit Study Skills.
