Welcome to the Information Design Course

In the Information Design Course students learn information design in part by designing the course and the learning resources.

Information Design Course taxonomy

The Information Design Course taxonomy shows the map that the students are to explore.

By developing the Information Design course, INF4/3210 at the University of Oslo, we want to set up a learning environment where students can learn the material which, we feel, nowadays just about everyone will need to know, namely whatever is needed for conscious and creative use of information and information technology. This material is organized around the new academic subject which we are calling information design.

In this website we cover the motivation for this course, the educational approach taken, the Flexplearn course model which describes how it all works and provide some practical guidelines for students. You can also see student projects from earlier courses.
