The course is based on applying a User-Centered Design (UCD) process to the design of a web page and app. During the first semester we work on the first phase of discovery using techniques that allow us to evaluate the type of content to be contemplated, and during the second semester we carry out the definition phase in which the project is conceptualized. Each phase has an associated delivery from which both the report and the oral defense are evaluated.The subject has a weekly operation with 2 teaching sessions:
During each session, initially an introduction to the basic concepts will be made and later the concepts explained in a practical exercise will be applied.
The final grade of the course will be calculated from the grade of the two semesters:
FIRST SEMESTER'S GRADE (40%)
? EC1 (10%) (Moderately significant)
? EC2 (15%) (Moderately significant)
? EC3 (15%) (Moderately significant)
SECOND SEMESTER'S GRADE (60%)
? EC4 (15%) (Moderately significant)
? EC5 (20%) (Moderately significant)
? EC6 (20%) (Moderately significant)
? EC1-6 (5%) (Moderately significant)
EXTRAORDINARY RECOVERY. JULY
Continuous evaluation grades cannot be retrieved. Recovery of the PRACTICE (part 1 and part 2) in a single delivery.
RULES AND CLARIFICATIONS
In case of copy, the current regulations of the University will be applied. Any work that uses information from third parties, whatever the source, either partially or totally, is considered a copy. All material submitted, unless otherwise specified in the statement, must be the student's original. If the statement allows for the delivery of third-party material, it must be correctly referenced. Otherwise, it will be considered a copy and will result in a zero in the file and the loss of the call according to the rules of the University.
On the day of the presentation, all members of the group must be present for the practice to be accepted. If it is detected that in a work submitted by a group any of the members has not participated, either in whole or in part (all members must participate in the realization of all points of the statement), the person in question will have a note of Not Presented (NP). If there is any suspicion of this on the part of the teacher, he or she may ask the student for an interview to demonstrate his or her knowledge of the subject. Submissions have a strict deadline. Submissions must be made through the eStudy in the appropriate well with the correct format.
It is the student's responsibility to check that the submission has been made correctly. Therefore, the student must ensure that the file is correctly hung in the well and that it is the correct version, the correct format and can be opened without problems. Otherwise, the practice will be considered as Not Presented (NP) and no complaints will be admitted.
The course requires regular reading, writing and presentation exercises and a minimum of 13 class attendances.
Dedication to the subject: 5 credits at 25 hours/credits
Annual dedication: approx. 30 teaching weeks
Weekly dedication: 2 hours of class
A minimum dedication per student of approximately 125 hours is calculated, but each student adapts the workload of the internship.
