Plagiarism is presenting somebody else's work as your own. It includes: copying information directly from the Web or books without referencing the material; submitting joint coursework as an individual effort; copying another student's coursework; stealing coursework from another student and submitting it as your own work. Suspected plagiarism will be investigated and if found to have occurred will be dealt with according to the procedures set down by the University. Please see the assessment misconduct procedure for further details of what is / isn't plagiarism. Note that submitting writing generated by AI tools as your own work might an Academic Offence (see also the Guidance on the use of artificial intelligence (AI)), and penalties apply as detailed in above procedures. All material copied or amended from any source (e.g. internet, books) must be referenced correctly according to the reference style you are using. Your work will be submitted for plagiarism checking. Any attempt to bypass our plagiarism detection systems will be treated as a severe Assessment Offence. |
Coursework Submission Requirements

Detailed Specification
Design brief
The scope of the interactive prototype should be limited to the above mentioned two main areas, for interactions that may take place on the motorbike as well as off the motorbike. You are asked to create a proof of concept for the interactions of this system to see if users find it usable and desirable. The basic brief is open for interpretation, and you can and should design desirable interactions as you see fit based on your background readings and your research activities.
Interactive prototype
You are required to describe the conceptual design and provide a description and visualisation of the product and its components and interactions in the report. You need to submit an interactive digital prototype demonstrating the interface and interactions of your application and explain how one interacts with its components.
Your design and research activities need to be in alignment with your target group and justifications for all your assumptions and design decisions need to be provided.
Report
Your report needs to be professionally and academically written and structured, based on your own research and reading, and written by yourself using appropriate in-text citations and referencing. This includes the demonstration of English language proficiency, appropriate level of detail, professional formatting of the report, and the writing should be supported by at least 8 relevant academic references (journal papers, conference papers, academic books - not blogs or online tutorials etc.).
References and in-text citations should be formatted in Harvard style. The report word limit is 3000 words. If the submitted work exceeds the limit by more than 10%, marks will be reduced.
Deliverables
- Report of 2000-3000 words uploaded as a pdf file.
- Mid-fidelity prototype uploaded as .rp.
The prototype should be submitted as an Axure RP file unless agreed with the module leader otherwise.
Assessment Criteria
Professional writing style, English language proficiency, writing with appropriate level of detail, professional report formatting, sufficient and appropriate referencing in Harvard style of academic sources (e.g. journal papers, conference papers, academic books) throughout the report. A minimum of 8 sources is expected.
A review of relevant and appropriate HCI background literature written in your own words and appropriately referenced, to inform the design of the product and to generate requirements. The relevant background research (e.g. related work, HCI literature in relation to the product’s context, interaction design theory, cognitive psychology etc.) should support generating requirements for the proposed solution. It should be made clear which academic sources have been used and how they were retrieved.
The product design consisting of A) A discussion of the product idea (conceptual design) explaining the components of the product and how the user will interact with the product, and how requirements will be met, and B) The design principles (by Don Norman) and their application to the coursework product are discussed. A brief discussion for each principle/concept and suitable visual representations should be included.
A detailed proposal for an empirical HCI research study that uses your interactive prototype. In this proposal, you need to describe and justify the details for a research study including the research question(s) or hypothesis that your research study attempts to investigate, who the participants of your study will be, how the study will be run, the data collection, and how you will analyse the data. You do not need to run the study but you need to create all necessary material and documentation that are required for a usability expert to run the study.
A conclusion providing critical reflections on the limitations of the work that has been carried out and a discussion of potential future work if the project would be developed further. The conclusion needs to go beyond repeating what has been said elsewhere and show a clear vision in the context of HCI of what the next steps for such a project would be.
