Semester: kevad
Tulemus: hindeline arvestus
Nõuded: kaks laboratoorset tööd ja kontrolltöö kursuse lõpus
Punkte: 2.5
Igal esmaspäeval toimub ruumis IT-213 harjutus või praktikum. Igal teisel (paaritu nädala) kolmapäeval toimub ruumis VII-131 loeng. Teisisõnu:
Loeng: paaritute nädalate kolmapäevadel kell 12.00-13.30 ruumis VII-131 (uus korpus). Esimene paaritu nädal algab 28. jaanuaril.
Harjutus: paaritute nädalate esmaspäevadel kell 12.00-13.30 ruumis IT 213-A (AK arvutiklassid).
Praktikum: paarisnädalate esmaspäevadel kell 12.00-13.30 ruumis IT 213-A (AK arvutiklassid).
Goals
The goal of the course is studying/practicing ideas, methods and technology for building UI-s for web-based apps. We will focus on applications handling data, not marketing/information pages. Think catalogues, blogs, cms, reservation, e-commerce, financial apps, mashups etc. Creating the actual app, database schema, security and authentication solutions etc etc are not in the scope of the course.
The three themes of the course (with roughly equal importance) are:
- Nontechnical aspects of the UI: usability, structure, visual design.
- Browser technologies: html, css, javascript, dom. Ajax.
- Server-focused technologies: json, xml, xslt. REST, content aggregation and mashups.
We assume familiarity with html and basic server-side functionality: i.e. competence to create simple web apps.
Labs
Kursusel on kaks kohustuslikku laboratoorset tööd. Töö teemaks tuleb valida üks kahest:
Mõlemad laboratoorsed tööd realiseerivad siis seda ühte valitud teemat: esimene töö ehitab dummy-ui ilma tegeliku serveripoolse rakenduse ja andmebaasita, teine lisab serveripoolse rakenduse ja andmebaasi.
Labs:
- First lab: building the functioning prototype/fake UI using static files for the app.
- Tähtaeg: märtsi keskpaik.
- itv0030 2008 esimese praksi tehnilised nõuded
- Second lab: actually building the app, using web services provided by the lecturer and the UI prototype you built before.
- Deadline is mid-May.
Labwork may be done alone or in pairs. Groups of three, etc are not allowed. Each lab will be graded, and the grade will be worth 1/3 of the final grade. In order to succeed at the course, both labs plus the final test must be presented/passed. Lab presentations after the deadline will be worth 1/2 of the grade it would receive otherwise. All lab results must be presented on site during regular lab hours, both authors must be present. Email submissions are not accepted.
