Emerging Interfaces

In Emerging Interfaces, we worked for a electronic health record provider to gamify the record system, in order to encourage record completion and accuracy in the office. My team's design began with typical gamification methods, such as time lines, score boards and rewards. As we developed our ideas with many iterations, and were encouraged to push the boundaries, we focused on rewarding the users through an electronic fish tank and personal digital fish.

Below are my sketches and ideas during the process.

Prototyping

In Prototyping, taught by Chauncey Wilson, we worked on persona development and support, rich picture and storyboard development.

Field Methods

For Field Methods, we worked individually for an online ancestry research website. After studying many research models, I developed personas and conducted a research study to better understand the needs of the users. Here is an example of the initial persona development.
