A practical introduction to user interface (UI) design for the web.

We first paint a picture of the web of today, as well as employability opportunities in the field. The main part of the workshop involves critiquing existing examples of web design, and proposing solutions to improve user experience. This includes a segment on how to deconstruct UI design, a short seminar-style analysis task, and a paper-based redesign activity.
