RESEARCHING &

SYNTHESIZING

SHOULD BE DONE.

 

I WANT YOU TO DO 2-3 DIFFERENT CONCEPT IDEAS.

SKETCH THEM AND THEN CREATE WIRE-FRAMES
& PROTOTYPES TO TEST. THEY ARE NOT FULL WORKFLOWS,
JUST A COUPLE OF SCREENS TO CONVEY THE CONCEPT

BRING THEM TO CLASS AFTER SPRING BREAK

AND YOU PRESENT THEM TO THE CLASS.

THE GOAL IS TO TEST THESE CONCEPTS/IDEAS

AND HAVE USER PICK WHICH CONCEPTS THEY LIKE
THE MOST EASY TO USE AND WHY...

 

 

 

 

DON'T GO TESTING THEM YET, BUT IF YOU DO:

CREATE
