1. Veronica Erb User experience design and research
2. Wireframes from sketches to interactive prototypes
3. Wireframes: sketching password recovery Challenge: Experiment with ways to accommodate users who were unaccustomed to online accounts. Solution: I started with sketched wireframes that were informal enough to comfortably discuss new ideas. Though this particular screen could never make it to production, it was valuable to consider in sketch form. Full document
4. Wireframes: sticky notes and collaboration Challenge: Teach information architecture concepts to my web counterpart in Rwanda. Solution: When he visited us in DC, we built sticky note wireframes together. The physicality and exibility of the written sticky notes and printed page templates made the activity more interactive and inviting than if we had used a computer or a whiteboard. Full document
5. Continue Register to Participate in Discussions Gmail Yahoo! Mail Flickr MySpace Facebook AOL Which website do you use most often? I do not use any of these websites. Name Who are you? Where are you? Select your school Select your role Page 2 Wireframes: vector images of registration Challenge: Create a registration process that would ease account creation for Rwanda Education Commons users, who are inexperienced with online accounts. Solution: So we could focus more easily on the microcopy and question format, I created the registration wireframes outside of the context of the rest of the site. We separated questions into multiple screens, to ease completion. Full document
6. Wireframes: interactive HTML prototype Challenge: Test new Rwanda Education Commons functionality with users before the changes were made to the live site. Solution: I moved from tweaking vector image wireframes to creating interactive prototypes with HTML, CSS, and basic JavaScript. By using front-end technologies, we were not only able to use these prototypes in usability testing, but it also eased the transition to the production build. Full document

All resources can be accessed through any of the three “Browse by” branches. Site map: simple and dynamic Challenge: Communicate the information architecture of the National Asthma Control Initiative website to the client. Solution: This simple site map, which pulled most of its content from a mind mapping tool, provided a way to visualize and discuss the architecture of the in-progress site. Full document

15. 4. Write down three nouns and three adjectives describing each logo, in the space provided. Choose the first words that come to mind. 3. Paste the three chosen logos on the attached sheet in the indicated locations, in any order. 2. Pick the three most promising logos. Choose based on the graphical element you believe has the most potential to represent our the key GLP concepts. Text content and style can be more easily changed later. 1. Remove the nine logos from the attached envelope. Familiarize yourself with them: look them over one at a time, or spread them out on a flat space. The following exercise is intended to promote our focus on what the logo says about GLP, instead of how we feel about the logo. Take 15 minutes to complete the following steps, and then return to Veronica or Sonja. The prompts aim to help each of us gather our thoughts before we meet, and the gathered responses will help ground our group discussion. global connections learning and knowledge technology In order to represent the many aspects of GLP, we asked our designers to create logo comps focused on three GLP concepts: GLP Logo Redesign -‐ Activity Research design: consensus on a logo Challenge: Select a new logo for the Global Learning Portal. Solution: This activity encouraged team members to think about their preferences before we met. The kits were intentionally hands-on: they included printed logo comps, instructions, and a glue stick. By the time we met, not only had each member already voiced their responses to the designs, but we had also achieved a consensus. Full document
