In this subject students are introduced to principles of information design and to models for designing and structuring information and communication products and services. These are analysed in relation to the opportunities and capabilities of various information and communication media. Both individually and in groups, students apply specific principles and models of information design to the structure and presentation of content for print and multimedia formats. Students develop practical skills integral to the processes of designing user-centred information. Capabilities in the use of appropriate information design technologies and languages including basic print, web authoring and HTML skills are developed. This enables students to develop information products to facilitate a variety of information and communication interactions. They also develop professional communication and collaboration skills by working in teams to meet collectively negotiated goals.
