ProcessHow do we go about this, anyway?
Describe your process
• Strategy
• Design
• Develop
• Deliver
Float uses our S3D process
• Strategy
• Design
• Develop
• Deliver
What does the process do?
• It’s replicable
• It’s predictable
• It’s measurable
• It’s cost effective
Process Overview
• Not ADDIE (though, I have nothing against ADDIE in particular)
• It’s agile
• It’s flexible
• It’s cost effective
Is your current prreplicableocess is
• Too many steps
• Too many deliverables
• Too many stakeholders
• Too many sightseers
• Too lengthy
• Clear high-level goals and direction
• Refined process
• Solid learning objectives with stakeholder buy-in
• Organized content
• Storyboards and templates
• Current development tools/software
• Talented well trained team of designers and developers
Rapid development strategies
• Demographics
• Goals
• Tasks
• Device Specifics
• Connectivity
• Tech Familiarity
• More?
Use cases/user stories

Craft Use Caseshttp://www.alistapart.com/articles/tamingscope/
• Start Analog!
• Understand the scope
• Ask some tough questions
• Not artistic, specific!
Sketches
Storyboards
Wireframes
• The “feel” of the app
• The brand distilled into colors, shapes, textures
• Not a design, but rather design elements
• Quick to put together
Moodboards
• Be careful not to incur design debt
• Know your HIG!
• Go as close to native as possible
• 2-3 revisions, max
Mockups
• Moving from mock to life!
• So rewarding
• Get buy in ASAP
• Circulate and socialize
Prototypes
• Best Practices
• Create for each step in the process: Storyboards, Wireframes, etc.
• Style Guides
• Core graphics
Templates
• Approach with caution
• Now is the time for a requirements analysis
• Have a frank discussion with your vendor - what’s up with their mobile strategy?
• Maybe time to get off the upgrade train?
