UX and UI design: Students develop self-help apps

March 3, 2022

In the winter semester 2021/22, students of the B.A. Graphic Design and Visual Communication had the task of developing a concept for a self-help app in Prof. Rasmus Giesel’s course “Interactive Media”.
The final product was a set of click dummies in which users can test the core functions.

Overview

After an extensive research phase, in which they created personas, user journeys and prototypes, among other things, they started designing.
The students have tackled modern problems faced by digital natives and have found answers to frequently asked questions with their app prototypes.
