1 describe and demonstrate different types of user interaction, feedback and user accessibility within interactive applications in the context of the User Experience
2 build documentation using design tools such as flowcharts, storyboards and pseudocode for complex user interactions
3 design and develop intuitive, user-friendly user interface and interaction designs in accordance with UX design principles
4 design and develop an interactive application to meet design specifications for different user groups, considering accessibility and featuring a variety of interactivity and feedback
5 analyse and adapt appropriate program development strategies and practices to develop modularised user-centred interactive web applications
6 integrate user-centred design methodologies into the development of a product and explain how this can impact the software development life cycle
7 evaluate and design methods of user-centred testing appropriate to determine effectiveness and user acceptance.
