The course is divided in five conceptual blocks.
The first four blocks consist of two lectures and one exercise. Each exercise will have clear constraints and must be handed at the end of the block. A block typically spawns two weeks.
The last block does not have any lectures assigned, but focuses on the development and testing of one project on a larger scale. Students will be given the choice of either take one of the previously handed in exercises, or make a whole new one. It is expected that students work in self-arranged groups of no more than 5 people.
Each of the first four hand-ins consists of the prototype result from the exercise, plus a written assignment. Each written assignment should be of a minimum of 2000 words + 1000 words extra per team member, excluding references (f.ex. a group of 5 people will hand in an essay of 7000 words at least).
The final hand-in consists of an extended prototype that has been tested in the wild (i.e. with real users), plus a long essay of 4000 words + 1000 words extra per team member, excluding references (f.ex. a group of 5 people will hand in an essay of 9000 words, at least).
The final hand-in should include all the previous material, that is, the 4 prototypes and the essays, to be evaluated by the course manager and the external examiner.
Prospective students should notice that this course does not expect more than rough but interesting and innovative prototypes. However, the written essays should address what elements of the theory each prototype focuses on, how the design process took place, and how the prototype can contribute to better understanding the theories presented in class. 

Written exam, group evaluation.
Exercises 1-4 account for 60% of the grade.
The final project accounts for 40% of the grade

The final hand in will be submitted in learnIT on the appointed date, before the deadline.
The final hand in will include all projects made for the course (4 in total).
