Assignments
There are 4 types of assignments
- Self-contained and sometimes shorter exercises called Calisthenics.
- Two major Projects related to a fictitious company, Nifty Tours (nifty).
- Two of your own websites based on ideas you learned in the other assignments, personal research and other classes.
- Phases and Reports of two Usability Testing Processes and Presentations in which you take on 4 different roles (facilitator, client, test subject, spectator).
Important!
All assignments can be revised and turned in up until the next-to-the-last week of the course, except for Project 1 which has a last revision date in the schedule. You can receive up to full points (or up to half points if originally late) on revised assignments. Tests cannot be revised.
