Additional information

Unit content:In this unit students will: examine and test practical methods and tools for developing varying prototypes for a broad range of connected service outcomes (ULO 1/2/3); adopt experimental and creative techniques towards developing low fidelity prototypes for new or enhanced products and services (ULO 1/2/3); apply industry standard computer skills and craftsmanship for developing high fidelity digital and physical prototypes (ULO 1/2/3/4); demonstrate professional written communication and visualisation skills to develop reports for the significant stages of project development (ULO 5/6); skilfully install an interlinked range of innovative digital, printed and spatial project touchpoints (ULO 3/4/5); and provide an evaluation of the installed service system to report any installation or user issues (ULO 1/2/3/5/6).
