Enterprise Software Redesign
Students researched, analyzed, and redesigned the user experience of the Academic Evaluation Report on MassArt’s student advising and registration system, WebAdvisor. WebAdvisor is the web front-end for Colleague, a student information system (SIS) made by Ellucian. Students used several methods from IDEO’s method cards to conduct user interviews and gather research. Employing the official visual language of the college’s brand standards, students translated their observations into an interactive prototype in a digital medium of their choosing.
It is difficult to describe how this interface represents an improvement over the original if the reader does not have any knowledge of the original.
In addition to addressing the general unattractive appearance of the WebAdvisor interface, the student has clarified and expanded the navigation, added personalization, introducted multiple views of the data, and streamlined the presentation of the information.
