WORK INTEGRATED LEARNING
Transferring skills into a workplace setting via participation, observation, and reflection, with emphasis on the relationships between academic and professional knowledge
TANGIBLE MEDIA
In-depth theoretical knowledge and an understanding of the processes that underpin the tangible as well as the embodied ways in which people interact with such systems

Design Research Proposal
PROJECT BRIEF
Survey the field of interaction design to develop a design research proposal for tangible media around the brief which requires to critique the field of 'Environment' and research contemporary technology developments backed by a survey of current issues in the design of tangible media.
The project is presented with a series of an annotated contextual survey poster, a contextual analysis, and a low-fidelity design prototype, which embodies the proposal in tangible form.

Technology Trend Analysis
PROJECT BRIEF
Increasingly, designers need to be familiar with a range of technologies to aid them in their design process, as well as being able to create new products, services and experiences that take advantage of emerging technologies. This project introduced a range of existing and emerging technologies and Augmented Reality (AR) is the selected technology to explore how it is disrupting the design process and outputs of designers in the Interaction Design discipline.

Tangible Media Prototype
PROJECT BRIEF
This team project requires to design and prototype a tangible media project in response to the brief 'How can we design a meaningful, tangible media experience by designing and making an interactive lantern?' The team will plan and run a tangible media design process to develop a working experience prototype and evaluate this within a context of use to investigate a design research question in relation to the brief, and analyse findings from the evaluation to draw implications for design and apply these to refine the design prototype.
An additional poster is done individually that reflects on ones role in the design process and draw out lessons for the design of tangible media, relating to relevant design research in the field.
