Continue ReadingDay 6 - We learned the different types of prototypes and how they are used for different purposes, even for the same project at different design stages we can use different prototypes to test out ideas. I think this is really helpful because I now know...
Continue ReadingMonday: We discussed different types of prototypes and saw how user testing can be conducted with very basic low fidelity prototypes. Tuesday: We presented in pairs an example from the paper on Prototypes that we were assigned to read. We then discussed different types of research and...

Continue ReadingWhat do prototypes prototype Stephanie Houde and Charles Hill One of the biggest take aways for me from this reading was the idea that no single type of prototype is ideal for every situation. There are a variety of methods of prototyping, and some are better than...
Continue ReadingIt came to my great surpise this past Tuesday when everyone was brought out to the lobby in order to use the design methods we had learned towards making wallet prototypes for each other. I paired up with Akshansh as we both saw each other...
