Interaction

Interactive Matrix

How can designers collaboratively ideate, prototype, and test interactive designs like websites and apps without the cost, time, and restraints of coding?

Use Chrome to interact with the Figma prototypes.

AR Poster

Open-Ended Question: How can a designer bridge digital and physical experiences in both print and AR?

UX/UI Interaction Design Principles

Open-Ended Question: How can interactive design (UX/UI) components communicate and practice design principles?

Non-Majors: All of these solutions are from non-design, non-art, students from majors like chemistry, geoscience, biomedical, biology, and engineering.

Beneficiary: The beneficiaries are learners new to UX/UI design principles in interaction design.

Crowdsourcing DataViz App (Fall21)

Open-Ended Question: How can a crowdsourcing app resolve a user’s complaint by empowering them to input a small amount of data and see the impact of their contribution (DataViz) on a larger community?

Students worked in a group and individually through:Benchmarking, Personas, Pain Points, User Journey Maps, Scenarios, Task Flow Analysis, Wireframes, User Testing, Naming, Branding, Lo-Fi Prototypes, Hi-Fi Prototypes, and an Explainer Video.

See the two best student solutions below.

Risking the Physical and Digital Experience

Open-Ended Question: How can the digital experience of playing Risk feel more physical? Within the assigned context, how can the UX/UI be improved when playing Risk digitally?

Lego Hidden Side (Spring21)

Open-Ended Question: How can our next Lego AR theme be more physically interactive (hands on bricks) than LHS? How can our next Lego AR theme improve the UX/UI problems observed in LHS? How can we tell the story of our next Lego AR theme to Lego stakeholders?

Rullo

Rullo is a math-based game where the user removes numbers from the grid so that the remaining numbers in each row or column add up to the numbers at the beginning and end of the given row or column.

Students explored UX/UI principles in this project.

Crowdsourcing DataViz App (Fall17)

In the course “Online and Mobile Interaction Design Systems,” Dr. Armstrong trusted me to assist in critiques, lectures, and tutorials (motion and interactive prototyping).
