Attendees will gain hands-on experience using a variety of prototyping tools and learn how to plan and execute prototypes for mobile devices, tablets, and desktop, and quickly iterate through a think-make-check process. |
SIX lucky attendees of this session will receive an Axure license valued at US$589 (~£345)! |
Agenda:
Part 1, Tools – Prototyping tools and demonstration. Practical hands-on exercises using a variety of tools – Balsamiq, Pencil (open source GUI prototyping), Axure and POP (Prototyping on Paper app for Android and iPhone), and code-based tools like Ratchet.
Part 2, Activities – Sketching instruction for basic shapes like rectangles, triangles and circles. Everyone sketches ideas for an app and then turns to their neighbors to conduct a simple user test. Then they revise their sketches based on what they’ve learned. Everyone gets a chance to sketch, and everyone participates as a user.
