Special Problems in Architecture Studies: Course Description
In this website development class, students examined how the structure of a site directly affects the end user. Through the use of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) and Extensible Markup Language (XML), students created their own unique prototype that included structuring and defining the site and developing evocative content. In this class for master's degree candidates in Architecture, students studied the structure of multi-user sites, how users interact with sites and the ins and outs of utilizing search engines. Suggested readings included books that help with software requirements, user-centered designs, business planning and other computer-related tasks. Professor William Mitchell and lecturer Daniel Greenwood taught this graduate-level Architecture Studies class in 11 weekly 3-hour sessions in 2000.
