DESCRIPTION ABOUT THE BOOK UX and UI Strategy: A step by step Guide on UX and UI design This book analyzes how Don Norman originated the word "User Experience Design" in the 1990s and it means a person's perception or feeling towards using a product, service, website or software. Steps on how to develop user experience includes: User interface (UI) is the process by which users (people) interact with a product or service. The UI includes hardware and software components. User interface exists for various processes and provides a means of input and output. The following are the basic procedural steps of user interface design. The steps are namely. - Study the idea of the products and design requirements - Do research on potential end-users, study and analyze them - Locate a group of people matching end users - Create use cases and test the cases - Create paper demonstration What a user feels would depend on the way an organization has designed its user experience to fit the user's needs and expectation, an organization looks at the patterns, habits and behavior of users to make their experience better. UX design is all encompassing in the sense that it covers various fields such as psychology, computer science, statistics, and graphic design. A great user experience has to be useful, usable and desirable. Essential rules for UX Design such as design for users, provide absolute clarity, give users control, predict, then adapt etc. The design thinking process such as: - User centricity and empathy - Collaboration - Ideation - Experimentation and Iteration - A bias towards action The roles of UX designers as well as the misconceptions of UI and UX. UI is actually a subset of UX, UX goes beyond designing to ensure organizations fit into the shoes of consumers or users by carrying out surveys and interviews to know their needs in order to design what will solve their problem and meet their needs.

From the moment it was published almost ten years ago, Elements of User Experience became a vital reference for web and interaction designers the world over, and has come to define the core principles of the practice. Now, in this updated, expanded, and full-color new edition, Jesse James Garrett has refined his thinking about the Web, going beyond the desktop to include information that also applies to the sudden proliferation of mobile devices and applications. Successful interaction design requires more than just creating clean code and sharp graphics. You must also fulfill your strategic objectives while meeting the needs of your users. Even the best content and the most sophisticated technology won't help you balance those goals without a cohesive, consistent user experience to support it. With so many issues involved—usability, brand identity, information architecture, interaction design— creating the user experience can be overwhelmingly complex. This new edition of The Elements of User Experience cuts through that complexity with clear explanations and vivid illustrations that focus on ideas rather than tools or techniques. Garrett gives readers the big picture of user experience development, from strategy and requirements to information architecture and visual design.

UX design has traditionally been deliverables-based. Wireframes, site maps, flow diagrams, content inventories, taxonomies, mockups helped define the practice in its infancy.Over time, however, this deliverables-heavy process has put UX designers in the deliverables business. Many are now measured and compensated for the depth and breadth of their deliverables instead of the quality and success of the experiences they design. Designers have become documentation subject matter experts, known for the quality of the documents they create instead of the end-state experiences being designed and developed.So what's to be done? This practical book provides a roadmap and set of practices and principles that will help you keep your focus on the the experience back, rather than the deliverables. Get a tactical understanding of how to successfully integrate Lean and UX/Design; Find new material on business modeling and outcomes to help teams work more strategically; Delve into the new chapter on experiment design and Take advantage of updated examples and case studies.
