36-3100 Navigational Interfaces

Course advances students’ practical understanding of media theory, with an emphasis on interactive models of communication. Expanding upon the dynamic composition analysis in Media Theory and Design 2, this course focuses on navigational models of interaction design. Additionally, students continue to develop critical and analytical skills related to the component media typical of navigational interface design, including text, static image composition, sound and animation. Students produce substantial written critiques to demonstrate their growing understanding of the discipline.
