Finals

Our final is scheduled by the University for Monday, December 16 at 11am. 
There has been a discussion of having a Potluck on that day, which is perfectly fine by me.
We will discuss this prior to finals.

Attendance is mandatory.

During our allotted time you will be returned your final project (unless I choose it to showcase it in the hallway display), receive your final grade (which will already be entered into SAIL), and be asked to discuss the course as it progressed over the semester.

Sketching For Better Mobile Experiences

Mobile user experience design is maturing. One way to gauge this is to look at the tools at our disposal. Prototyping tools such as Balsamiq, Axure and Fireworks enable us to build wireframes and click-dummies, helping us to explain the targeted user experience. Cross-browser frameworks such as PhoneGap, Zurb Foundation and jQuery Mobile help us to create prototypes using the native languages of the Web: HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
