Thoughts on the Final Deck

Leave a reply

A couple of thoughts I had about how it should be constructed.

The Final Deck should tell the story of the creation of the app from start to finish.

Start off with talking about the concept presented to you by the client. Go into your initial research and how it informed the decisions you made. Then walk through the process of how you developed the product.

You want to focus on how the research especially the interaction with your users influenced the product’s development.

You also want to focus on the iterative nature of the design process, the number of variations and how each changed based on your experimentation and your interaction with the user.

Samples from previous classes for the final deck.

Remember that nothing is perfect. No matter how good something is it can be better, it can always be improved. The following final decks were all good but I have included some notes on how they could have been improved.

Good Design and concepts but weak on explanation and demonstration of the iterative nature of UX Design.

Good Design and demonstration of the iterative process of UX Design but could have used additional explanation of the process.

Generally Good overall
