Intro to the User Experience
Usability, affordances, design, and the project cycle.
Update, 17 Oct:
Remember to e-mail me a summary of the responses you got from the class, and your reaction to the exercise (both in terms of what you learned about your own site, and what you learned from watching the peer presentations). You and your partner can send me a single message under both of your names -- I don't require separate summaries from each team member.It would be most convenient if your e-mail summary were to include the URL of the site you are talking about (though I noticed in class today that everyone's link from the course website was working fine -- good job).

This short video does a pretty good job reinforcing some concepts that we've talked about in class, though the ending makes me a bit uncomfortable recommending it, in that "Please don't let any SHU administrators or my parents know that I've assigned this thing because they really wouldn't understand" way.
With an intro like that, you're curious right? It's just a couple minutes long.
