VIEW ADDITIONAL SCREENS
GOAL New UX / UI for the CBE Learning Platform. User feedback consistently indicated the existing interface was not intuitive and dated. Students had a hard time differentiating between different areas or levels within the program.
BARRIERS The CBE Learning Platform was extremely complex making a complete overhaul to the Student application difficult to accomplish in a single release. Base concepts also needed to be extendable in order to apply to other personas (Faculty, Grader, etc.) The Student application included overhauls of both WEB and iOS applications.
STEP 1: RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS Evaluate requirements and specs, create decision maps, analyze existing interface for information architecture and flow improvements.
STEP 2: SKETCHES AND ROUGH CONCEPTS Create initial concept sketches. Discuss concept improvements and iterate. Define potential technical barriers. Estimate tentative development timeline. Requirements QA.
STEP 3: WIREFRAMES Wireframes created for feature evaluation (Balsamiq). Clickable prototypes created to illustrate new information architecture and flow (Invision).
STEP 4: VISUAL DESIGN High fidelity, pixel perfect designs created and provided to the development team for feature implementation. The new interface features new navigation menus on all levels, new application architecture, updated controls and, overall, a more dynamic and functional experience.
