The sessions I design and facilitate draw on components of Design Science, guiding users through a discussion of the problems they face, translation of those problems into solutions, and refinement of those solutions through prototyping and evaluation. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f449ac7af5325752c5ee291/t/60756b2a92c1c46dbe473c5e/1618307958918/UX+Design+Concept.png User Experience - Design Conceptualisation User research doesn’t have much value if it isn’t effectively translated into the design of a solution. When creating design concepts for products, I place more emphasis on communicating key features and their value to users. I prefer wireframes and low fidelity prototyping to capture core design themes. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f449ac7af5325752c5ee291/t/60756cdddc647d2d97b34964/1618308687545/UX+Design+Review.png User Experience - Experience and Accessibility Reviews Even the best design can benefit from a thorough review from fresh eyes. I like to conduct reviews of both existing solutions that I’m looking to redesign, as well as concepts I’ve come up with, to ensure they meet the needs of the user. I also like to ensure my design concepts are accessible so that they aren’t exclusionary - technology should be for everyone. https://www.aaalexthompson.com/teaching daily 0.75 2021-04-20
