Outline and Purpose of the Course	Whatever information is valuable, it would be useless if we fail to effectively communicate the information to a receiver. To communicate the information effectively, it is important to design the information so that the receiver is able to easily understand it by structuring it. Information Design aims to provide a methodology to design and structure information so that people can easy-to-understand it. In the lectures, we will discuss what Information Design is, and provide a variety of methodologies for designing information in diverse media. More precisely, we will give lectures on information structuring, language design, design of user interfaces and interactions, information visualization, collective intelligence, social simulation, negotiation/discussion design, information comprehension and credibility.
Course Goals	Students understand and can utilize the knowledge of the concepts on Information Design and its methodologies.
Schedule and Contents	Information organization and structuring (2) Collective intelligence and information design (1) Social system and social simulation design(2) Negotiation/discussion design (1) Vision and startup design (2) Language and advertisement design (2) Design of user interfaces and interactions (2) Information visualization (1) Information comprehension and credibility (1) Feedback (1)
Evaluation Methods and Policy	Regarding Information Design, students should understand its related concepts and their methodologies, and are able to apply basic ones to actual problems. Grade is evaluated by considering the followings: Assignments that are announced during the lectures: 30% The final exam 60% Commitment to the lectures (e.g., asking a good question) 10%
Course Requirements	None
Study outside of Class (preparation and review)	Reading assignments are assigned to students. Also, some exercises are assigned as homework.
