Hi FFR, I am part of a group doing a final project for a User Interface Design course.
Part of our assignment is to get feedback on the design from people on the internet. That's where you guys come in.
What we
do not need feedback on:
- Whether or not this service needs to exist. Assume it does; analyze our group's execution.
- The backend implementation, or lack thereof. There's a lot of concerns with things such as tracking each user’s account information that our prototype interface completely glosses over. This is for a reason.
- The content of the trees themselves and the courses we have selected. This is just for a UI design class. Our group has obviously not gone through every course on the internet relevant to Machine Learning, selected the most important subtopics, and verified that the courses we have chosen are the best ones. Understand that the text is nothing but relevant-looking placeholders.
- Our business plan, or lack thereof. Obviously we haven't thought about things like how to fund this website, how to monetize it, etc.
What we
do need feedback on:
- Implementation and intuitiveness. We've gone with the tech tree idea. How could it be better? Are the prerequisites and successive subjects clearly displayed with this method? Is the information about specific courses easily and intuitively accessible?
- Ease of learning. Are some of the features of the site not obvious?
- Visual design. Does it look good? Does something stand out to you as obviously ugly?
- Subjective satisfaction. Just overall, does it feel like a nice interface?
- Any dumb shit we accidentally missed. Is something spelled wrong, for instance?
With all that said, please give feedback on our design! Feel free to be blunt about your issues with the interface, I would much prefer that compared to people being too shy to give us feedback.
Thanks!
