USABILITY STUDIES
Information Architecture Research
The core of uSer Experience Design is User Research. For these studies, I looked at how a web site was organized. A lot more than you think goes into effectively placing your links and making a menu.
In this report I conducted a variety of user research focused on the information architecture on Central Vermont Medical Center’s website. Using tools provided by Optimal Workshop, I was able to examine the extensive catalog of links and menus, identify weak portions of the sitemap and recommend design changes. The report was designed in Adobe InDesign with the sitemaps being build in Axure.
