Information Architecture
Section titled “Information Architecture”At this stage of the user-centered design process, you have gathered user research data, created 2 personas, and 1 usage scenario. Using this information you begin to create the information architecture for your app.
Instructions
Section titled “Instructions”- Use your 2 persona (primary and secondary) and the usage scenario to create the information architecture (IA diagram) for your app.
- Review your competitor research to see what features other products have and how they are organized.
- Make sure you keep your persona in mind throughout the process.
| Task | Description |
|---|---|
| Organize all content | Write down the names of all possible screens/content on sticky notes. - Group them, create subgroups if necessary. - Name the groups. |
| Create the IA | Draw your IA using FigJam. Represent the hierarchy of information and the different sections and sub-sections of the product. Put thought into how you label them keeping in mind findability and discoverability. |
| Choose the platform | Decide what platform you would like to design for: iOS, Android or web application. - This is the platform that you will commit to for the rest of your assignments. |
| Navigation structure | Decide what navigation structure is appropriate for the content you have, and how it is organized. |
| Name your app | Choose a name that doesn’t already exist, that is catchy and that stands out from the other apps that offer a similar service. |
Note: A well-defined IA diagram will help you identify what screens to design/develop for your product.
