Hello,
Students need to register by May 24th for the course to run.
CMS 274: What is Digital Media?
Professor Mal Ahern – Summer Session A
5 Credits, Fulfills A&H Requirement
• Fully online and asynchronous
• Optional in-person meeting on Thursdays for students on campus who want live interaction
• Four Canvas quizzes (1x/week)
• Four short “creative activities” graded on completion (1x/week)
• No final paper or exam
This class offers a long history of the digital, ranging from 19th century looms to generative AI. We will focus especially on how new technologies transform the work of media production. Topics covered include computer graphics, digital cinema, video games, and women’s roles in computer history. Assignments include exploring “weaving as code,” designing your own video game, and learning how to “glitch” digital images. All course requirements can be completed remotely and asynchronously. Email professor Mal Ahern (malahern@uw.edu) with questions.
Dear Students,
Here are some flyers for upcoming Autumn courses that you may be interested in taking:
Hello,
Here are two classes for civil engineering students who might be interested in registering for our courses URBDP 480 “Planning as a Profession” and CEP 498 “Planning Studio” in Fall quarter.
Hi CEE students,
If you have a job or internship this summer but are still interested in completing a few credits, you may be interested in taking CEE 452: Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures. It’s offered as distance learning, so you can complete the work on your own time, without coming to campus. CEE 452 is a structures technical elective for BSCE students and an E&S elective for BSENVE students.
See attached flyer for more information!
Dear students,
This is an unusual HCDE course in that it has recently only been available in Summer quarter and is not restricted to HCDE majors.
Summer 2024 Course – HCDE 210: Explorations in Human Centered Design
Instructor: Arpita B
Course: HCDE 210, SLN 11617 (3 credits) For undergraduate students
Time: Tu 12:00-2:20PM
Areas of Inquiry (AoI): Social Sciences (SSc)
In HCDE 210, we will introduce students to the main activities and techniques used in human centered design (HCD) and explore domains in which they can be applied. The format of the class will include a combination of lecture, guest speakers, discussion, and hands-on studio work for projects.
Students will:
Registration-related questions can be directed to Meghan Oxley in HCDE Advising (what@uw.edu).
Hi all,
We wanted to highlight our EE Summer course offerings as many of them are available to all students if they have the prerequisites.
EE 215 Fundamentals of Electrical Engineering (4)
EE 271 Digital Circuits and Systems (5)
EE 469 Computer Architecture (5)
Hello Students!
I’m hoping to draw your attention to some Program for Writing Across Campus (PWAC) courses that are still open. PWAC offers small discipline-linked courses that offer students lots of instructor contact and intensive support for writing in progress.
ENGL 198 A/B (SLN 14070/14071) Linked with Psychology 101
ENGL 297 C (14124) – Linked with Cinema and Media Studies 270
ENGL 298 C 14127 – Linked with Sociology 250
ENGL 299 B (14129) & C (14130) – Linked with Nutrition 200
Also we’ve got one unlinked Writing in the Humanities course that was accidentally mis-scheduled. The TS is now corrected but enrollment has not caught up. Our unlinked courses are wildly popular so grab a spot while it lasts!
ENGL 297 A (14122) – Writing in the Humanities
AA 598 Virtual & Experimental Structural Dynamics
A new special topics course, Spring quarter
Course content: Virtual and experimental techniques focusing on modern optical methods such as optical flow for characterizing the structural dynamics of aerospace, mechanical, and biological systems. Optical flow is a powerful computer vision method for describing image motion. You will learn advanced non-contact sensing techniques, such as high-speed imaging, high-speed thermal imaging, and Laser Doppler Vibrometry. These techniques will be compared to conventional sensors.
Prerequisites: Senior or first-year graduate status, and courses in linear algebra and ordinary differential equations. A course in vibrations is recommended but not required.
a) High-speed image of water-entry of structure; b) impact in a spider-inspired web; c) dynamic mode shape web using optical flow method; d) a mobula-ray (flying ray); and e) traveling and stationary waves in a stingray-inspired wing.
