Just came back from the 4-day Interaction Design Practicum at Cooper in early February. Like Brad, I have a UCD/Usability and Visual design background and was impressed with how they actually implemented the Goal Directed Design Process.
It's definitely tailored for the real world. Their focus on ethnographic research, contextual scenarios, sketching, whiteboarding and a very in-depth look at creating personas creates a workable methodology that can be tailored to any project. Great group of inspiring participants and instructors. I'm hoping to get some time off to take their other courses. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
