The document discusses Leisa Reichelt's approach to prototyping, which involves quickly testing ideas through multiple prototypes rather than extensive documentation. She advocates forming a multidisciplinary team to create prototypes moving from sketches to HTML to test content and get early user feedback. Prototypes should be used to test both qualitative and functional aspects. Iterating quickly allows learning more. This approach can be used with startups, large conservative organizations, and governments to make new things less scary through experimentation.
7. HOW I WORK NOW
- get a multidisciplinary team quickly, let them contribute.
- sketch to HTML, stay out of photoshop
- real content, prototype/testing content
- multiple prototypes (test lots of ideas, don’t commit)
- quickly test both qualitative and ‘active’ use
- let stakeholders ‘touch’ your ideas
- iterate, the more quickly to learn more.
- only document what you really need to.
8. WHO I DO THIS WITH:
- start ups
- large, tech conservative organisations
- large, security conservative governments
(so, basically, anyone)
9. HOW I GET TO DO THIS?
just ask.
‘this is the way I like to work. it works well. can we try it?’
12. DON’T WORK ALONE
a small team is best
-you (UX/IA)
- 1 or 2 FE Developers (UX Developers?)
