Our company would like to explore designing a prototype for a mobile application version of our current web based product (Holistic eating and wellness guide and coaching). We would like an app that our clients can use to take our holistic eating courses, track progress, and receive coaching and take lessons. This would include a component that would bring the client back to check in with the app daily and use point system or sorts. Everyday that you do your program, you are rewarded.

Tasks may include:

• Conducting background research on our existing web application for the product.
• Identifying key areas of our current product and how they might translate to a mobile application.
• Learning and using various software design tools.
• Creation of a screen by screen UX / UI prototype of a native mobile application which can be used on both iOS and Android
• Conducting UX / UI testing with real potential users potentially involving paper prototypes or other software tools to support this

Final deliverables should include

• The design screens and all assets in a shareable format
• A presentation as stated above of the final designs and recommended next steps

By the end of the project, students should complete the following list of activities:

• Familiarize themselves with our existing product
• Brainstorming and ideation
• Related work/background research including: user research and scenario design
• Designing the requirements: Design and build inside of the design tool all the needed screens for a mobile application prototype of our product
• Prototyping
• User testing
• Evaluation
• Present the final design screens to us with the context of all their choices they made, problems they encountered, and next steps they recommend.

Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:

• Current product understanding
• Industry standard design tools and applications
• Any sort of branding or styling advice
• Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter
