Defining UX
22. 3 Clicks? A myth
Designing for
scent is more
successful than
designing for
navigation.
– Jared Spool, UIE
If there is a scientific
basis to the Three-Click
Rule, we couldn't find it
in our data.
- User Interface Engineering,
April 2003
Self Study
“Designing for the scent of information” - Jared M. Spool, Christine Perfetti & David Brittan, User Interface Engineering
26. “Progressive disclosure
defers advanced or rarely
used features to a
secondary screen, making
applications easier to learn
and less error-prone.”
- Jakob NielsenSelf Study
“Progressive Disclosure” - Jakob Nielsen, December 4, 2006
31. “Designers can create
normalcy out of chaos; they
can clearly communicate
ideas through the organizing
and manipulating of words
and pictures.”
—Jeffery Veen, The Art and Science of Web
32. When information is
clustered appropriately on
a screen, users can scan
and quickly come to terms
with the intent of the
content.
42. Consistency is an important but
sometimes over-rated tool
It’s key in maintaining a coherent
experience
But develop an eye to know when to
break from it
43. Design pages so they’re scalable
Suppress modules or sections of the
page until they're needed
Don’t labor to create content just to
ensure every screen or element is
“consistently” populated
46. People may come to your homepage
But more and more likely not
They’re more likely coming from Google or social
media
Many sites report only 20% of visitors landing on their
homepages
Some as few as 10 or 5%
• 88% of traffic coming to The Atlantic not hitting home page
• More than 50% of visitors to the NYT not arriving at the home
page
Have you ever bought a book on Amazon.com
47. More Important?
• SEO*
• Taxonomy
• Metadata + Tagging
• Mobile friendly
*search engine optimization
52. “Web users spend 80% of their
time looking at information above
the page fold. Although users do
scroll, they allocate only 20% of
their attention below the fold.”
- Jakob Nielsen, “Scrolling and Attention,” March 22, 2010
53. “People will look very far down a page if (a) the layout encourages scanning, and (b) the initially viewable
information makes them believe that it will be worth their time to scroll.
Finally, while placing the most important stuff on top, don't forget to put a nice morsel at the very bottom.”
- Jakob Nielsen, “Scrolling and Attention,” March 22, 2010
55. Consider the amount
of attention an
audience needs on a
particular screen*
*It may be zero

68. What is “agile”?
relating to or denoting a method of project management, used especially for
software development, that is characterized by the division of tasks into short
phases of work and frequent reassessment and adaptation of plans.
"agile methods replace high-level design with frequent redesign”
—Oxford English Dictionary, contrast with “waterfall”

Agile Methodology
71. Lean UX
Agile Methodology
“Lean UX … is less focused on deliverables than traditional UX. It requires a
greater level of collaboration with the entire team. The core objective is to focus
on obtaining feedback as early as possible so that it can be used to make quick
decisions. The nature of Agile development is to work in rapid, iterative cycles
and Lean UX mimics these cycles to ensure that data generated can be used in
each iteration.”
—A Simple Introduction to Lean UX, Interaction Design Foundation

75. User Journeys Definition
Self Study
“An introduction to user journeys” - Jason Hobbs, September 6, 2005, Boxes & Arrows
82. Our Project
Events.com
Events.com want to revamp their website to become the go-to
online resource for people wanting to attend or promote a
large variety of events across the United States.
It should default to the city you’re in—New York—but allow
users to change to other cities within the U.S.
85. “Through research, we aim to learn
enough about the business goals,
the users, and the information
ecology to develop a solid strategy.”
– Louis Rosenfeld & Peter Morville
Discovery: User Research
86. Goal
Identify patterns and trends in user behavior, tasks,
preferences, obstacles.
Methodology
• Focus Groups
• Surveys
• Interviews
Discovery: User Research
87. William James on User Research?
“[I]n a delicate inquiry like this, little is
to be gained by distributing circulars.
A single patient with the right sort of
lesion and a scientific mind, carefully
cross-examined, is more likely to
deepen our knowledge than a
thousand circulars answered as the
average patient answers them, even
though the answers be never so
thoroughly collated by the
investigator.”
– William James, “The Consciousness of Lost Limbs,”
1887
Discovery: User Research
88. Class Exercise: Survey Questions
• How do you learn about events in NYC?
• What type of events are you interested in?
• What’s more important to you:
– Price
– Type of Event
– Location
– Date
• Do you ever need to promote an event?
• Do you ever invite people to an event?
Discovery: User Research
92. “This type of assessment helps set an industry
‘marker’ by looking at what the competition is up to,
what features and functionalities are standard, and
how others have solved the same problems you
might be tasked with.”
– Dorelle Rabinowitz
Discovery: Competitive Review
93. Heuristic Evaluation
… involves evaluators examining the
interface and judging its compliance with
recognized usability principles (the
“heuristics”) —Wikipedia
Self Study
For a more detailed explanation of heuristic evaluation, see Jakob Nielsen’s Ten Usability Heuristics.
Discovery: Competitive Review
94. Sample Usability Criteria
These examples aren’t comprehensive. Appropriate criteria will depend on the project to be completed.
Home Page
• Elements are appropriately weighted and distributed
• Information is clustered in meaningful ways
Navigation
• Navigation structure is concise and consistent
• Paths to important information are intuitive and unobstructed
Content
• Content is content chunked appropriately
• Headings and titles are scannable
• Content is current. There are visible indications of content freshness.
Design
• Colors are appropriate for the Web. White space is used appropriately. Text is readable.
Search
• Search results are relevant and cleanly presented
Functionality
• Functionality and forms are efficiently designed
Messaging
• Errors messages are presented in clear language. Help readily available contextually to users
• Appropriate channels are provided for user feedback
Discovery: Competitive Review
95. Methodology
• Review and analyze competitor sites according to
particular criteria (heuristics)
• Draw key findings, which can influence and guide IA
through the design phase
• Include a scorecard for high-level comparison of
points across all sites
Also: Comparative Reviews
Discovery: Competitive Review
98. Key Findings
• Search is fairly prominent on each site
• Filtering on events is valuable, but not always easily available
• Calendars are helpful, but not always prominent
• Profiles and social features are handled with varying degrees of detail
• Free events are often highlighted
• Event detail pages may have maps, RSVP, sharing, rating, commenting
functionality
• Displaying other venues and restaurants adds utility
• Option to add or promote an event isn’t always prominent
Discovery: Competitive Review
101. “There are often better ways to organize data
than the traditional ones that first occur to us.
Each organization of the same set of data
expresses different attributes and messages.
It is also important to experiment, reflect, and
choose which organization best
communicates our messages.”
– Nathan Shedroff, Experience Strategist
Definition: Card Sorts
102. Methodology
• Grouping and labeling with index cards, post it notes
• Two types:
Open – Participants sort cards with no pre-established categories. Useful for new
architectures
Closed – Participants sort cards into predetermined, provided groups. Useful for fitting
content into existing architectures
• Online card sorts
– E.g. OptimalSort
Goals
• Organize content more efficiently
• Find names for categories based on users’ perspectives

104. Card Sort
As individuals:
• Take 5 minutes to think of all the events a person could
attend
• Write each event you come up with on a Post-It note
Definition: Card Sorts

105. Card Sort
Now, as a group:
• Take a few minutes to organize your events into
categories (group & label them)
• Then we’ll share some categories
Definition: Card Sorts
15mins
106. Characteristics & Findings
• Looking for redundancies
• Lumping and splitting
• Outliers and miscellaneous items
• Placing items in multiple categories
• Categories versus filters
–E.g. Free, Family, Outdoors
• Unique but intuitive labels
–E.g. Geeks, Relax
Definition: Card Sorts
107. Next Steps
With the results of a card sort we then can:
• Build consensus
• Refine terminology
• Create a site map
• Help define navigation

108. Definition: Card Sort Tools
Post-It Plus
This app from 3M allows
you to scan your Post-It
Notes, organize and share
them.
111. Conceptual DesignDesign: Site Maps
“A site map is a high level diagram
showing the hierarchy of a system.
Site maps reflect the information
structure, but are not necessarily
indicative of the navigation
structure.” – Step Two Designs

127. Twitter
Design: Sketching
[This sketch] has very special significance – it's hanging in the office
somewhere with one other page. Whenever I'm thinking about something, I
really like to take out the yellow notepad and get it down.
– Jack Dorsey, Twitter
128. “There are techniques and processes
whereby we can put experience
front and center in design. My belief
is that the basis for doing so lies in
extending the traditional practice of
sketching. ”
—Bill Buxton
Design: Sketching
129. Attributes of a Sketch
• Quick
• Timely
• Inexpensive
• Disposable
• Plentiful
• Clear vocabulary
• Distinct gesture
• Minimal detail
• Appropriate degree of refinement
• Suggest & explore rather than confirm
• Ambiguity
Design: Sketching
130. - Stefan Klocek, “Better
together; the practice of
successful creative
collaboration,” Cooper Journal
“Ninja. Rockstar. Gifted
genius. Many of the
ways we talk about
creative work (whether
it’s design or
development) only
capture the brilliance of
a single individual.”
Design: Sketching
131. Defining Collaborative
Sketching
• Rooted in Design Studio Methodology
• Grew out of industrial design and
architecture
• No “rockstars”
• Todd Zaki Warfel
o Create. Pitch. Critique.
o 6.8.5 (6 to 8 sketches in 5 minutes)
• Different versions/methods but steps
included to encourage outcomes
Design: Sketching
132. Goals for Collaborative Sketching
• To communicate your ideas effectively by visualizing them
• To benefit from the participation of your colleagues
• To quickly generate ideas and refine through iterations
Design: Sketching
134. • Discuss the purpose of the specific experience you’re
sketching
• What does it need to accomplish?
• What features are necessary?
• How would you prioritize them?
• Who’s the audience?
• You’re not discussing layout or design
• Just the problem you’re trying to solve
• You’re not sketching yet
Discuss
Design: Sketching
135.
136. Sketch
• Sketch silently
• Limit your time – 5,10 minutes
• Sketch as much as possible, as many different
ideas as possible
• Don’t worry about mistakes or style
• Emphasis is on the quantity of ideas, not the
quality of the sketches
Design: Sketching
138. Share
• Review your work with your team
• Keep it short – 60 seconds each
• Offer your feedback to others
• What you like
• Questions about what didn’t work for you
• You’re not grilling your colleagues and this
isn’t a competition
Design: Sketching
139. Iterate
• Now sketch again if you need to
• Or collaborate on a high-level wireframe (e.g.
via whiteboard)
• Then begin your wireframe with a more
informed view, with more and better ideas
• Iterate on your design
Design: Sketching

2) Sketch your ideas for a homepage individually
3) Discuss your sketches again with your team
Design: Home Page
155. Usability Testing
“Usability testing refers to evaluating a product or service by testing it with
representative users. Typically, during a test, participants will try to
complete typical tasks while observers watch, listen and takes notes. The
goal is to identify any usability problems, collect qualitative and quantitative
data and determine the participant's satisfaction with the product.”
- usability.gov
Design: Usability Testing
156. Types
• Paper prototype
• Clickable prototype
• Full HTML
• Eyetracking
Design: Usability Testing
Methods
• In person/remote
• Moderated/unmoderated
• “Guerilla”
158. Responsive Web Design
“Rather than tailoring disconnected designs to each of an ever-
increasing number of web devices, we can treat them as
facets of the same experience. We can design for an optimal
viewing experience, but embed standards-based technologies
into our designs to make them not only more flexible, but more
adaptive to the media that renders them. In short, we need to
practice responsive web design.”

• Think “mobile first”
• Maintain content and features across devices
• Adjust designs at different “break points” corresponding to
various devices

Scent of Information
If you were to take only one thing away with you today, it would be that the 3-click rule is bunk.
Can actually make for a very cluttered site if you try to flatten content so it’s all available within three clicks
Users will happily click away 5, 6, 7, 8 times without noticing, if there are clear paths to what they’re looking for, concise navigation, intuitive labels, etc.
Background: Studies in “information foraging” in the early 90s at PARC (Palo Alto Research Center Incorporated)
Better: a dynamic tension between reducing the number of clicks and providing strong scent to content
Uniqlo Site
Progressive Disclosure
Reduce clutter, cognitive overload, so there’s less to process at once - Across multiple pages – or within a page or overlay
“Progressive Disclosure” by Jakob Nielsen, December 4, 2006
Originated with studies in the 80s by user interface specialists Jack Carroll's lab work at IBM
Progressive disclosure in an app – weather details

When information is clustered appropriately on a screen, users can scan and quickly come to terms with the intent of the content.

Isn’t to say that you couldn’t have a lot of content on the page – e.g. Pinterest. But content is grouped logically, can be scanned easily.

Remove paths not taken
Seems simple, but a lot of sites could benefit from adhering to this principle
Remove paths not taken

The Tyranny of Consistency
This is a “Know it when you see it” kind of problem – sometimes tough to put a finger on
But be sure when you break with consistency, you do have a principle in mind for doing so
Varying dropdown styles on MBUSA.com are not “consistent,” per se, but tailored to the needs of the user and the content in each case.
Found this site by searching on Worst Home Page in the World.
Clearly, it’s trying to be all things to all people.
Instead, it looks like a dog’s breakfast.
Jakob Nielsen wrote in 2002 that home pages are “the most valuable real estate in the world.”
Sourcing: http://www.niemanlab.org/2012/08/coming-in-the-side-door-the-value-of-homepages-is-shifting-from-traffic-driver-to-brand/

Know Your Audience
Yes, your site typically has multiple audiences. But not all of them need to be addressed at once. Giving proper thought to who defines a site's audience helps clean out the chaff.
Example: Placing find an event functionality in an area where a using is creating an event. Not necessary for that audience.
