Enrollment

For MA-HPSTS, MA-MINF and MA-CMS students:
Please note that you have to enroll for the lecture and the exercise via Selma. We will add you to the Opal course later on.
The Selma enrollment will start on September 26th, 0:00 and will close on October 15th, 23:59.
If the list for your respective course is full, please don’t enroll in another courses list. Instead enroll on our Waiting List in the Opal course.

For BA-INF, BA-MINF, MA-INF and DIPL-INF students:
The enrollment will take place exclusively via OPAL
The OPAL enrollment is expected to start on October 6th, 09:00 AM.
If your list is full, enroll on our Waiting List in the Opal course.

For everyone else who was not mentioned before (e.g. ERASMUS students), please contact supervisors Katja Krug and Konstantin Klamka (both!) directly via e-mail to discuss enrollment.

Since the course have limited capacities, it is recommended to enroll early. The capacity of the lecture is not limited.
To enroll for 4SWS (2/2/0), you have to enrol separately for the exercise and the lecture.

You will find the course material in the Exercise Opal Course.

Description

The accompanying exercise helps to deepen the contents of the User Interface Engineering lecture with practical experiences. Therefore, we will teach the development processes of an user interface in its various phases based on real-world application scenarios. The exercise focuses on the scenario-based design process, which is divided into the analysis, design and evaluation phases. All three phases are carried out, presented and discussed in small groups. Each team works on a project during the entire semester. The projects include different topics which requires the consideration of specific users, tasks and context. Finally, the main objective of the exercise is the development of an interface solution for the selected topic that involves novel, natural interaction modalities.

Schedule

The lecture material will be provided in the OPAL course.
Exercises (E) and lectures (L) will take place on Wednesdays and Fridays (see table below).
