Assignments

PROJECT 1
Deliverables
A paper prototype of a sequence of screens which demonstrate the core functionality of your app/website. In other words, you will be showing 3-6 screens that would allow a user to complete a primary goal.

Concept
You may use your own idea for the project or one of the following scenarios.

option 1: A service which allows people to order food from a wide range of restaurants and have it delivered to them. Users can customize the app to have their favorite restaurants and dishes featured.

option 2: A service which allows people to creat their own online “newspaper” which has
content of interest to them. They can choose the subjects and sources for the news,
as well as the way it is laid out.

Details
This project can be done alone or with another person. You will be working on some aspect of this assignment in every class, but will probably want to spend extra time before the critique refining it.

PROJECT 2

Deliverables

A digital prototype of an app or website that is built using one of the medium fidelity tools we covered in class. Make sure to demonstrate the core functionality with some basic interactions that make the prototype feel more usable.You should be able to show at least one flow with a total of 6-10 clickable screens that allow the user to complete a certain goal.

Concept
You may continue with your own idea for the project or use one of the following scenarios.

OPTION 1:An app/site which allows people to book tickets for a variety of shows and events. You can follow certain theaters or organizers and add upcoming shows to your watch list.

OPTION 2: An app/site that would serve anyone living in urban areas who wanted to find a pleasant walk through parks or nice areas of the city. It would map a route according to your requirements and take you through as many picturesque parts of the city as possible.
