THE SOCIAL HUB
X/ UI Design
Overview:
The Social Hub is an application that my team, Malie Ebanculla, Brendan Norris and I created to help adults find events, activities,, and friends in their community in a safe way. When working on this project we were focused on the UX side of the application, conducting field study, field research, competitive analysis, interviews, personas, journey maps, and multiple rounds of user testing. By completing extensive research on the problems and what the users need and want, we were able to create an application to best aid young adults in finding events, activities, and friends in their area in a safe way. Struggles:
The struggle that we faced at the beginning of the project as a group was communication and being on the same page. Because of the lack of leadership within the group, I stepped up as project manager to ensure my team got the work done on time and was moving forward in a cohesive direction. Due to the adjustments we made in the team structure, we were able to finish the project with a great workflow. RESEARCH PAPER & PRESENTION
Outcomes:
The outcome of The Social Hub application is a well-developed UX research plan with a medium fidelity application that demonstrates how the user's needs would be met with the creation of The Social Hub.
