Observations
Prototype iteration
Changes from iteration 1 to 2:
- New layout for search page - moved the calendar/scheduler to the top right hand side and changed the UI for the departments. Instead of taking up half the page with the checkboxes for the departments, we changed it to a "Choose..." drop down menu that can be used if necessary, and we moved it to the bottom. We also rearranged the order of the checkboxes to make the more common departments at the top (such as 21L, 21M, 21A, etc).
- New layout for friends page - search bar is in the middle instead of the left sidebar
- Eliminated the left sidebar which was used to easily change options that you searched for. Instead, made the "search" and "results" pages easily accessible to go back and forth quickly.
- Added a right sidebar which displays classes you are considering and classes you are taking. Also displays your calendar/schedule at the top. At the bottom, has options to email your schedule or share it via different communication methods - this replaces the "export" or "my classes" page.
- Changed wording of "Browse" to "Results", and put it right next to the search.
- Added the names of categories 1 through 5 because many users did not know what the categories were.
- Changed friends' classes to sticky notes so that they have affordances to be dragged to the right sidebar.
