Labyrinth design (May 14, 2020)

So I finally got my test run completed and emailed it to my class. I got nine responses out of a total of twelve people from the class, which amounts to 75% (a pretty good descent number, if I do say so myself). They found that my mission objectives were easy to follow, and 75% of those 9 people would consider buying the full-version of the app if I should ever make one available to the market.

That's the good news. The bad news is most of the test studies that were done had a circle which you could navigate and it wouldn't change screens on you if you got the answer wrong, only for a right click will it allow for a screen change. Mine doesn't do that as it has a clickable arrow and changes screens whenever the answer is right or wrong.

I gotta play with this feature more, or maybe next time I enroll in another of Bennett's classes.

Maze Compatibility pt. 2 (May 12, 2020)

I talked with my teacher on an issue regarding Maze and how to get a user testing run via Figma (from the Figma Website) as I might be doing something wrong. Talking through him, I think I realized my problem: I have been clicking the “Share” button by it, but somehow I thought there was a faster way. I thought hitting the play arrow button on the top right corner would allow me to instantly hook up with Figma. I tried this over the weekend, but couldn’t as FireFox (one of my two web browsers) wouldn’t allow me to use it as it would open additional pop-up windows. He went over the steps again and I took screenshots. The first step he said was to go the user testing portion of the home page and to click the ‘create a new project’ link, but after that I told him that I think I might know what the problem was. The problem wasn't that I was doing the steps wrong: I was doing them right. In fact, it had to do with which web browser I was using. I had Firefox opened, and that sho...

Chapter 2 Summary (February 2, 2020)

Chapter two of the textbook reading begins the process that was discussed in the previous chapter. The research phase begins the UX process; this is the process where a person understands the business content and gains an appreciation for the key markets. That’s the definition that the book says, but the key word in the first phase of UX design is all about ‘research”. That is, taking the time to do some research on either your target audience or competitors (or both), and when you’re done with that give a rough sketch or outline of what idea you are proposing. It’s also better to collaborate and communicate in this phase and have a business model idea (or framework) handy to maintain daily conversations with your clinch that will ensure back-and-forth discussions/healthy dialogue. the dialogue also consists of asking the right questions that should pertain to the business aspect in relation to the product and what they hope to get out of it. These questions might consist of the client...

Chapter 1 Summary and Online Reading (original post: January 30, 2020)

The UX book that I will be using for class reading is “Killer UX Design: Create User Experiences to Wow Your Visitors” by Jodie Moule. UX is short for user experience, and is based around computers and the internet. The book defines it as a series of interactions that a person has with a specific product, service, or organization. Moule also brings up the methodology for user-based design systems, and the remaining seven chapters of the book will be based all around this method, with the chart found below. There’s also qualitative and quantitative research as methods for testing during the UX process: quantitative research looks at the actual behaviors of clients/users in order to get an understanding of why they do what they do, and quantitative focuses on mass data collection and analysis themes in order to make assumptions regarding human behavior. In order to dive into UX research, the person must also be able to put themselves in other people’s shoes in terms of what they would...
