Example(Annotated(Table(of(Contents! ( 1. Introduction This should set the scene and outline the assessment and the structure of the report. 2. Background 2.1 Research This should include research relevant to the coursework task, for example, but not limited to: • Research into the specified topic, similar past work (academic articles),etc. • Research into current issues in User Interface Design E.g. Adaptive/Responsive Design, Input methods, Screen sizes, Operating Systems, etc. • Conclusion (Do not present anything new. It must show how these will feed into the development of the prototype) 2.2 Guidelines and Standards • Outline the range of guidelines and standards available (there are many) for your consideration. • Contextualise these into the coursework task. • Conclusion. Decide which ones you will use and justify your choice. (Do not present anything new. It must show how these will feed into the development of the prototype) 3. User Groups • User Personas – What is the target group? Two user personas. • Scenarios - What are the key tasks? Two user scenarios. • (user personas and scenarios should be justified) 4. Visual Design Remember you are creating a look i.e. brand – do not forget to justify yourchoices • Layout – wireframe(s)/Information Architecture • Colour scheme • Font style • Graphic design elements: icons, images, multimedia etc. • Conclusion – Restate how your choices make for an effective interface design. 5. Evaluation Talk about evaluation techniques and justify the one you will use to decide which one to take forward. This may be a Heuristic Evaluation, cognitive walkthrough, focus groups, etc. You must discuss those. 6. Design of the prototype a. Mid-Level Prototypes i. Design 2 mid-level prototypes based on scenarios and personas developed in section 3 above. Show the design process and how they map to the points you raised in the report so far. ii. Selection Process - Decide on the criteria to judge these by and select one. Refer to your discussion about evaluation methods and/or guidelines and standards above. b. Final Prototype Design Show development and how they map to the points in the report, and outline using the two scenarios/personas developed earlier. 7. Critical reflection A critical reflection on your own personal experience of designing a user interface for a prototype, alongside discussing what you have learned, how it could be improved, and how you will apply this in practice. This must not be a summary of the report 8. References These should only refer to the work cited in your report and should be in the Harvard style. 9. Bibliography This used all the websites, books and journals that informed the development of this coursework but are not referred in it
