Specific information

The course is cancelled 2019.

Prerequisites

Basic knowledge in information design is required. Skills in 3D modeling are beneficial.

Intended learning outcomes

The aim of the course is practical and theoretical knowledge in information design with a focus on way showing, in physical and virtual environments. After course completion, the student should be able to:

  • Design and implement wayshowing systems in virtual environments
  • Evaluate the efficiency of way showing systems
  • Evaluate design options based on critieria related to (physical) material and graphic form
  • Describe advantages and limitations of a 3D representation of an enviromnent, compared to the real physical environment.
  • Describe perception and cognition in 3D environments.

Course content

  • Design of way showing systems in physical and virtual environments
  • Evaluation methodology for way showing systems
  • Perception and cognition in virtual and physical environments (way finding)

Teaching and working methods

The course is organized in lectures, labs, seminars, and hand-in assignments.
