PROJECTS

Overview

Project (max 24 points) the main activity considered for evaluation

can be completed and evaluated by the end of the course

Two types of projects:

Prototyping projects

Evaluation projects

Both types of projects, requirements provided by teachers, in the domains: e-culture, e-tourism, e-learning, e-commerce, e-entertainment

Prototyping project Designing and prototyping interface and key functionalities of an

interactive application involving either interaction with desktop, mobile, tablet, or touchless gestural interaction using Kinect Deliverables: design documentation, prototype, presentation, video

(optional)

Evaluation project empirical study: evaluating the quality of the user experience on an

assigned application design of the study, development of the technological setting, testing

with samples of real users, data collection and analysis of results Deliverables: study design documentation, collected data, data analysis,

presentation

Project (max 24 points)

Project (max 24 points) Students who attend the Interactive TV course (prof. Cremonesi)

can work on a joint project (both types) shared among the two courses and get credits for both exams

Preferably a group work (max 3 students)

Supervised by teachers during the course (only) mandatory weekly tutoring (project by project, once a week)

Can be extended to master thesis

Consider articipation to Microsoft Imagine Cup “the world’s premier student technology competition”: http://http://www.imaginecup.com
