Axel is tremendous over in Design, and opens his summer course up to students from outside Design.
If CSE students will be here in the summer, and are seeking a course that complements our courses in HCI & Design, this is good to look into.

Hi James,
I hope this finds you well! I am teaching my Interaction Design 383 again this summer – would you be able to share the following course information to your students? It would be great to have some CSE students on board!
Many thanks,Axel

DESIGN 383 A Su 19: Foundations Of Interaction DesignMondays and Wednesdays 12:40-3:20, IxD Studio: 236 Art BuildingJune 24 – August 21, 2018
Interaction Designers shape experiences for interactions between people, artifacts, and environments. This class introduces various approaches to designing interactive systems from a studio-based design perspective. The class focuses on the design of affordances for interactions by representing, organizing, and addressing functions, information and different perspectives, resulting in experiences of use. A series of lectures, discussions, and small projects explore the role of interaction designers in the development of interactive products, systems, and services.
By the end of this course you will be familiar with the basic concepts, techniques, and knowledge of Interaction Design: Readings will introduce you to the foundational aspects of interactive systems in everyday environments and expert domains. The class will prepare you to apply various design techniques such as design research, ideation, interaction models, interface design, and evaluating design concepts as prototypes. Emphasis will be on interaction flow, visual design and experience, and a story-driven design process. 
Three design projects will apply the foundations of Interaction Design to a broadly defined design challenge, leading from understanding the design situation to ideation, to the conceptual design of an interactive system.

Note: This course has prerequisites that can be waived with an add code. This course is open to all students in summer quarter. Please email the Instructor at roesler@uw.edu to obtain an add code.
