| Why? |
Being able to present your work is essential to developing quality user experiences. PowerPoint is the dominant tool for making presentations. We will also use PowerPoint as a tool for sketching out visual designs. If you are on a Macintosh, PowerPoint is available. However, many Macintosh users prefer Keynote. Because students, teams, the instructor and the TAs all need to communicate, a knowledge of PowerPoint is required. Once you leave the class, you are welcome to seek the tools of your choice :-) |
