==Description==
==Description==
This class is designed for media students who are interested in an introduction about how the digital media are present in the urban spaces, and how it can be related to cultural aspects, through mobile devices gadgets.
Everyday thousands of gigabytes of information are created and shared in social networks and other collaborative platforms. The preference for mobile devices for these activities also grows.  
Nowadays, technology is present on most part of people’s daily life. Digital equipment belongs to the people’s routine and they are increasingly amalgamated to the daily activities and are integrated in a way such that perceptions of technology are, somehow, decreasing. On the other hand, the amount of technological gadgets spread on cities can constitute themselves as a medium.


Another phenomenon that occurs at the same time came from the permanent connectivity (an ubiquitous scenario) reinforced by the mobile devices, specifically the smartphones. The everyday new possibilities through them can configure an important role in the society. It is far behind the time when, in order to enjoy a historical and cultural experience, it was necessary to visit a museum or to buy a guide to check the information about the monuments and historical buildings in a city. Despite the importance of these institutions and options, the technology allows the expansion of the concept one step further, and cities itself can be used as open air museums.
Nowadays, mobile technology is present on most part of people’s daily life. The mobile devices have already supplanted the preference of the users as interface to check the latest news (Indvik, 2010), but its use for cultural preservation are still an open for different possibilities.
 
If the technology can bring the world in a small scale of a mobile screen by enhancing the museums and galleries possibilities, the portable technology can also add elements to the real world, changing the perception of urban spaces. There are no more limitations about space, neither about the opening hours to provide to the visitors a complete and empowered cultural experience. Mostly, the already developed applications and games using mobile devices to interact with urban spaces are dealing with tangible elements of the culture. A mobile app could also work for intangible and tangible elements, in order to enhance the knowledge regarding it.  
This scenario leads to the question: is it possible to collect and filter the available online information in order to create a solution to use the proper references and content to preserve the intangible cultural heritage? Music, food, clothing and behaviors (just to mention a few) are part of the intangible values of a specific timeline. The purpose of this class is to discuss the relation between the preservation of these immaterial elements and the use of social networking through mobile devices.
 
In this class will be discussed which technologies can be traced as common sense on the already adopted applications and which other resources are available to deal with the user experience on the cultural heritage information, and how the use of collaborative technologies can magnify the content production, preserving the intangible elements of culture, from the user perspective.
 
This class will have a theoretical overview about mobile media and a practical part where the students will develop a mock-up model for a collaborative mobile app, working as a conceptual model of cultural patterns’ aggregator, where it will be possible to learn more about this topic and having the possibility to collaborate with their own ideas.
 
For this course it is recommended (but not mandatory) to participate in the courses “iOS Development I” from Michael Markert, and “Interface Design II” from Prof. Dr. Jens Geelhaar.


This class is an invitation to theoretical and practical perspectives to observe digital media and in urban scenarios, addressed for cultural purposes. It is a methodological and creative approach to analyze the mobile culture role in the urban spaces, under a theoretical and interpretative approach.

Description

Everyday thousands of gigabytes of information are created and shared in social networks and other collaborative platforms. The preference for mobile devices for these activities also grows.

Nowadays, mobile technology is present on most part of people’s daily life. The mobile devices have already supplanted the preference of the users as interface to check the latest news (Indvik, 2010), but its use for cultural preservation are still an open for different possibilities.

This scenario leads to the question: is it possible to collect and filter the available online information in order to create a solution to use the proper references and content to preserve the intangible cultural heritage? Music, food, clothing and behaviors (just to mention a few) are part of the intangible values of a specific timeline. The purpose of this class is to discuss the relation between the preservation of these immaterial elements and the use of social networking through mobile devices.

In this class will be discussed which technologies can be traced as common sense on the already adopted applications and which other resources are available to deal with the user experience on the cultural heritage information, and how the use of collaborative technologies can magnify the content production, preserving the intangible elements of culture, from the user perspective.

This class will have a theoretical overview about mobile media and a practical part where the students will develop a mock-up model for a collaborative mobile app, working as a conceptual model of cultural patterns’ aggregator, where it will be possible to learn more about this topic and having the possibility to collaborate with their own ideas.

For this course it is recommended (but not mandatory) to participate in the courses “iOS Development I” from Michael Markert, and “Interface Design II” from Prof. Dr. Jens Geelhaar.


IMPORTANT: You don't need previous knowledge in Android, iOS or even any type of programming skills. This class is more focused on the design and navigation aspects.

Collaborative Mobile - Evaluation

Homework - Assignment

This class will be graded based on one assignment divided in three major tasks, which are complementary. In other words, the first task will be a preparation for the second and the third one is a compilation of the first two. In the end, the final assignment will be the result of the work that will be developed during the semester:

  • Short presentation of an existing collaborative App/Web Project - 5 to 10 min presentation (10%)
    Based on a given table of analysis, each student will choose an app(for any of the mobile operational systems) or a web-project and present it, covering positive and negative aspects. Some items such as design, HCI and so one should be observed. In case of an app, if possible, the students should install and test it by themselves (When it is not possible, the evaluation could be based on the developers information).
    The presentation should be a short slide collection, with a description of the App/Web Project, contextualizing it, plus the application screens, pointing the suggested observed points.
    Slides in a PDF format should be delivered electronically after the presentation in order to complete the task.
  • Prototype presentation – 15 to 30 minutes (50%)
    Each student should present a conceptual prototype (not a real one, just a design concept), developed for mobile devices, for cultural purposes.
    For the conceptual model is expected to show, at least, one complete feature navigation, instead of just a “welcome screen”. The student should provide the entire mock-up for accessing a functionality. For instance, if the user wants to select a feature from the welcome screen, which steps (and how many “buttons” should be pressed) until achieve the desired information.
    It is expected for this exercise the use of HCI and design guidelines for the interface design and navigation. For instance, following the guidelines developed for iOS and Android platforms (according to the students’ choice), such as:

What will be evaluated in this Assignment: design aspects, navigation and justification of the chosen solutions.

  • Short essay production – 1000 words +samples and references (40%)
    The content present during the short seminary must be also presented as an essay. It must have: 100 to 150 words as a short introduction plus 800 to 1000 words of development. Samples and references will not figure in this account, but they must figure inside the essay. Complete references are required.
    The topic of the essay can be an academic report regarding the prototype presentation, or another topic regarding collaborative mobile media.
    What will be evaluated in this assignment: ability to express in written format, content structure and content quality, plus the correct use of references. In this assignment will not be corrected grammar or vocabulary, as far the student can express the content properly.
