408 Chapter 12 Understanding Usability and Accessibility Designing a Prototype Designing a prototype is the second stage in the user-centered design life cycle and involves defining a site’s information architecture (IA). The IA defines the relationships between individual pages—the navigation—and the relationships between internal page elements—the user interface (UI). At this stage, you should also start to consider which SharePoint templates to use for your content, such as a team site or a wiki page. When organizing and structuring your Web site, consider carefully how to group the information in a logical fashion for your users. This helps you define the navigation structure, the page structures (UI), and the metadata taxonomy you need to create so that users can tag information. This step also assists in defining guidelines about where information should be stored and how your search center should be structured. See Also A detailed blog about organizing your information with SharePoint can be found at sharepoint.mindsharpblogs.com/Bill/archive/2010/04/02/Organizing-Information-in- SharePoint-Server-2010.aspx. The step of defining the relationships between individual pages (or navigation) can be carried out on paper or by using a modeling tool such as Microsoft Visio or Microsoft PowerPoint. You can create a navigation structure similar to the following. Home Home Company Overview Executives Org Charts Press Releases Products Product 1 Product 2 Product 3 Product 4 News and Events News Events Press Releases Support Support Request Intranet Login Office Hours Contact Blog
Designing a Prototype 409 Tip Card sorting is a powerful technique for assessing how people group related concepts. Card-sorting workshops are a great way to involve end users in designing the navigation for a site. There are numerous resources on card sorting on the Internet. These sessions are also a great way to perform housekeeping on content if your development involves migrating from another application. When you are defining the relationship between internal page elements (the UI), establish those elements that will appear sitewide and be contained on a master page—such as the banner and navigation menus—and those that will occur within content areas and be contained in the layout, such as Web Parts. This step helps determine whether you need to customize or build any new master pages or layouts for your Web site. You can carry out this step on paper or in tools such as Microsoft Visio or Microsoft PowerPoint. You can create a number of screen designs, such as the wireframe example shown here. After the IA is established and designed, you can easily build a concept prototype. The concept prototype might be as simple as a low-fidelity paper-based version, or you can create a more advanced interactive version using wireframe production software or develop a version in SharePoint.
