Institute for Behavioral Training: Android A native app created to reflect the same structure & benefits of their existing E-Learning website. I contributed my skills in Information Architecture, User Experience Strategies & Interface Design.

Challenge:

How can we expand functionality in mobile for existing customers and reach new mobile customers.

Process:

After using the existing website and taking a course I mapped out the current structure of the web experience. We got a clearer picture of our mobile user persona using analytics data and conducted a survey and interviews on current users.

Many rounds of sketching helped shape the solution. Fleshing out the flow of the existing website helped set the foundation for the mobile experience. Going through about 7 rounds of wireframe iterations, the flow was streamlined and UI elements were pared down to the essentials.

Solution:

Design mobile version of website that leverages native app functionality to enhance experience and streamline user flow.

Verifying:

The solution was tested using a prototype internally, by QA team and by a selection of current clients until it was clear the mobile experience was ready.

Challenge:

Current website has outdated branding, with static and mystery meat navigation. It also has long load time and a high drop off rate. Content is redundant through out, and community blog is broken.

Process:

Assessment of current website with site map, content audit, analytics report with 2 years of data. Definition of content owners per section and interview meetings with each.

Development team leadership by defining roles, task assignments and keeping project documentation plus having weekly status updates. Define project goals, audiences, and technical needs. Do card sorting exercises with development team to create clarity in content and navigation. Set structure map, design navigation interface and sketch out wireframes per page.

Have follow up meetings with content owners to approve “new” content structure and setting deadlines for any copy needed from them. Rapid prototype pages as content and layout is approved; from sketch wireframe to clickable prototype.

Solution:

Organize and filter current content, update and include new content as needed. Design new UI that is responsive and provide a community section and an educational section.

Verifying:

Design and code MVP navigation interface prototype to test internally within development team.

Challenge:

Clients don’t understand tangible impact of therapy hours. Parents need a non-technical progress report to see students status.

Process:

Researched data visualization tools. Collaborated with CARD Assessment team for data and the design of brain map visuals. Gathered visual inspiration to create mood board. Received list of brain regions to be featured in visual designs. Created UI concept comps in photoshop. Had a brainstorm session with CARD Assessment team and presented those comps to determine a way to make the impact of lessons feel tangible. We settled on making a brain light up regions when user clicks on its respective lesson/curriculum.

Solution:

Simplify and clarify lesson structure in a visual way. Provide an intuitive, visually rich and user friendly progress overview tool.
