Projects and Exams

(Final note from Dino)

It is not only you who feel uneasiness and insecurity when at the beginning of the semester we step into the ¡®creative space¡¯ and begin working on the projects. I too share the same concerns. Are we going in the right direction? Will the results be any good? But now that the projects are there, I am glad and inspired to see that all of you have taken up the challenge, as well as the pleasure, of being creative. Congratulations for the good work!

Your projects are intended to serve as study material for the final exam. Please use them! On the oral exam I will be asking questions which will allow you to show that you have been studying the projects.

The oral exams next week will take place in Styrerommet on Ifi as scheduled. This Friday exceptionally the exams will be in Store Auditorium.

On the oral exam we will have the Internet connection available. Please prepare an efficient ten-minute demonstration of your project. Make sure to mention:

• Which theme you chose and why
• Which navigation/document structuring you used and why
• Which web-design tools you used and why
• What you have learned about information design by exploring and presenting your theme.

Then give us a quick tour of the most interesting parts of your website. During the remaining 15 minutes we will be talking with each member of the group individually.

I thank you all for your contributions to the development of information design at the University of Oslo and I wish you success on the exam.
