Design for Mobile Devices - 11/18

This one-day class will focus on the web design angle of mobile content. The course will touch on other web technologies like Flash and proprietary mobile device technologies, but will focus on the theory of mobile design, which can be applied no matter what the technology is. Audience context is key when designing for mobile devices: when a user uses their computer in a traditional setting, they expect an in-depth experience. When viewing websites "on the go," what’s the best way to provide users the same core experience in a small-screen context?
