The course participant is expected to demonstrate ability to apply knowledge in the planning and conducting of exercises and tasks both individually and in cooperation with others, and take responsibility for visually, verbally and in writing communicate knowledge and abilities. The course participant should: Demonstrate basic knowledge of industrial design engineering Demonstrate basic skills in collaborating in, planning of, and managing and implementing projects Demonstrate basic skills in creating and developing user-centered solutions Demonstrate basic problem-solving skills Demonstrate basic skills in academic conduct Demonstrate basic skills in communicating the design process and its results in writing, orally and visually Demonstrate basic ability in acting professionaly Demonstrate basic ability of individual development with support of feedback Contents Introduction to industrial design engineering User-centered design Project management Basic engineering Design methods Creativity Usability and User experience Sustainable development and Ethics Visual, oral and written communication Basic model construction techniques and prototyping methods Practical planning, cooperation, and implementation of design projects Sketching: perspectives and visualization RealizationThe course is designed based on learning theories concering knowledge development by alternating theoretical and practical work and to continuously receive feedback on performance and resutls. The course design is based on students having an active and strategic role in their own development. A large part of the exercises are for this reason introduced by teachers or through descriptions of assignments, and are then carried out independently, both individually and in cooperation with others, with support of teachers' feedback.ExaminationThe course examination consists of several assignments, which should contribute to achieving the learning objektives. For approved assignments, they should meet the criteria set out in the study guide and in the task descriptions on canvas. Formative feedback is provided, which means you have the opportunity to obtain feedback and then submit again before final.RemarksStudents must register for the courses themselves, or contact ETS educational administration eduets@ltu.se,not later than three days after the quarter commences. Failure to do so can result in the place being lost. This rule also applies to students with a guaranteed place.
