Web Design and Digital Imaging

The course is divided into two related parts: web development and web programming (called the web part), and digital imaging (called the imaging part). The web part starts with the basics of html and the creating and editing of simple html documents, and ends with the production of dynamic web pages with, for example, dynamic menus, forms, advanced navigation, and so forth.

The digital imaging part starts with the basics, and continues with more advanced theories and techniques for digital imaging. Furthermore, the course covers software and equipment for digital imaging: how they work and how they can be used creatively in the work with digital images. The focus for the digital part is web publishing.

The course also covers basic principles for web usability and principles for visual communication. These principles are integrated in the two parts of the course.

As an important way to gain knowledge and skills in the above mentioned parts, the course also includes assignments where the student analyzes web sites from different perspectives, e.g. principles for web usability, principles for visual communication, and reverse engineering (i.e. analyzing the technical solution for web sites).
