Collective brainstorm: Goals, project ideas, and focus areas for the UX/UI Working Group

@Ali Hugo @Jenna Makowski

During the meeting we’ll be working together on a shared whiteboard. Everyone will have the opportunity to add their ideas to sticky notes. We’ll then discuss the ideas and work together to plan the next concrete steps.

For a sneak peek at what we’ll be brainstorming:

  • Open the whiteboard at this link

  • Select “continue as guest” in the top right

  • Enter your email address (you can use a dummy address if you like)

    Note: We’ll be adding stickies during the meeting, so no need to do it beforehand (unless you really want to!)

Meeting notes

  • Present:

    • Ali Hugo

    • Jenna Makowski

    • Santiago Suarez

    • Mary J Ziegler

    • Cassie Zamparini

  • Ali encourages the UX and UI working group members to contribute to the agendas of the bi-weekly meetings.

  • During this first call we brainstorm the UX and UI working group’s goals by adding stickies to this whiteboard. Please feel free to continue adding stickies to continue brainstorming async. To do so:

    • Open the link

    • Select “continue as guest” in the top right

    • Enter your email address (you can use a dummy address if you like)

  • One thing that was we discussed was the creation of a library of resources that includes assets, access to the Paragon design system, brand guidelines, accessibility guidelines (@Mary Ziegler - an accessibility expert - mentioned she’d look through the Open edX accessibility guidelines), links to existing project files, and any other useful materials, so designers have a better system of guidance. The library will be the main source of current UX and UI truth.

Continue adding stickies to the brainstorming whiteboard so we can define our goals.
