Assalamualaikum and good day people!

Today's class was taken over by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Affandy. 

As scheduled, we need to present our 50% progress of the web-based project in class today.

So, the day started with presentations by both groups. When one group is presenting in front, the other group were asked to assess them based on interaction design, information design, and content design criteria. 

The comments should be kept awhile as a forum link will be opened by the lecturer on e-learning where students should post their comments to the group respectively. The group then need to defend themselves or agree to critiques and promise a change.

Dr. Affandy then comments both groups project. His comments touched issues of interaction design, visual design, and information design. We heard inspiring new knowledge regarding interaction design as Dr. told us how important it is; it actually the number one factor of why Samsung and hand phones' application become a madness to our social nowadays!

These keyword should be remember always and always; especially in designing a website or an application: 

MAKE SIMPLE DESIGN, BUT CLOSE ENOUGH TO END-USER

P/S: My group comments by Dr. Affandy were as below:

Group 2

--------

- has identity / consistency

- Information Design - discovery learning not strong enough

- Study more on Principles of Discovery Learning

- Visual Design OK

- Interaction Design OK- 'Explore'

- Focus on Topology - OK
