What’s happening?
07:
A few years ago, I redesigned several calendar interfaces for the Boston University community of more than 40,000 people. It was a good challenge, given the large audience and the range of user profiles. The main objective was to improve the user experience, something there wasn’t time for in the first release. My project roles included user interface designer and project manager.
Some improvements I designed included
- fewer fields on event displays and submission forms
- more logical field groupings and group headings
- client-side dynamic elements, showing what’s needed only when it’s needed
- simpler and more scannable search results
