The course deals with the design of flexible, accessible and robust web applications. Students will develop skills in creating effective user-centered web pages, compliant to standards and following recent trends, based on the analysis of users’ needs, information architecture, usability and accessibility criteria, and functionalities.
The course presents tools, methodologies and techniques for the design of versatile, reliable and accessible web pages. Students will acquire the skills required to create web solutions “à-la-page” compliant with accessibility standards. In particular, they will acquire skills for the use of the so-called Content Management Systems (CMS).
Web technologies are pushing rapid changes in software solutions, also reflecting on society and humans' behaviours. The objective ot the course is making students aware of Web design issues.
Learning outcomes will be the following: Understanding the role of technology in the evolution of Web design; Understanding structures and concepts of layout design; Developing prototypes.
Basics in Computer Science.
Active lectures and hands-on labs. Classes are also held synchronously, remotely, via the Teams platform.
Please note that the university laboratory and rooms meet more common accessibility criteria and they can be enhanced with specific aids and supporting technologies to make easy using computers for everyone, according to their specific needs.
The course partially contributes to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals of Agenda UN 2030 No. 10 "Reducing Inequality" and No. 11 "Sustainable Cities and Communities" by addressing web accessibility (W3CAG) and universal design.
