UX Research & Design : For Midwest Meals and Red’s Mercantile

Abstract

The goal of this creative project was to identify—from both a student and faculty perspective—the challenges and rewards associated with integrating industry-targeted, online courses into a community-based client project as part of a University independent-study course. The project resulted from an identified gap among industry need, existing information systems (IS) curriculum, and faculty resources related to User Experience (UX) Design.
