Content Descriptor

design and prototype the user experience of a digital system

Elaborations

  • designing engaging user experiences, considering aesthetics, functionality and the feeling of enjoyment and satisfaction of the user
  • prototyping a user experience, using simple graphical tools that support clicking on an image to change slides or views, for example using a presentation tool or a no-code user interface prototyping tool to design a simple mobile app
  • considering all aspects of a product as perceived by the users, for example evaluating users’ initial experience of setting up and using a system, or users’ emotional or cultural response to using a digital system
  • designing documentation, branding and marketing for a digital solution, for example a product demonstration screencast or ‘getting started’ user guide

Year 9 Technologies Achievement Standard
By the end of Year 10 students develop and modify innovative digital solutions, decompose real-world problems, and critically evaluate alternative solutions against stakeholder elicited user stories. Students acquire, interpret and model complex data with databases and represent documents as content, structure and presentation. They design and validate algorithms and implement them, including in an object-oriented programming language. Students explain how digital systems manage, control and secure access to data; and model cyber security threats and explore a vulnerability. They use advanced features of digital tools to create interactive content, and to plan, collaborate on and manage agile projects. Students apply privacy principles to manage digital footprints.
