Module 7 — Overview

Interactive Prototyping

Module 7 serves multiple purposes which are listed below:

1. The teamwork continues: Student Teams are continuing their term-long group projects. As such, the module introduces a larger, end-of-week group submission.
2. Students are introduced to the topic of Digital Prototyping — including Interactive Prototypes and UX Deliverables — through one video lecture, one exploration, and extensive readings.

These topics are critical for the fourth and fifth phases of the Design Thinking process, which you will use throughout the quarter for your UXR project.
