The Product Owner wants to create a user experience for a Partner to register for a class in iDevelop. Partner's should easily be able to search for a class and be rewarded upon their successful completion of a class. As an instructor I need an easy to use system so that I can manage and create classes that I teach and can close out the roster once complete from iDevelop. The Experiences for users should also be enhanced, on all devices, for projects assigned through Wrike.

This part was very important for my learning process about how other companies tackle eLearning Platforms. I wanted to see what a few companies have been doing so that I can see what works and what doesn't.

Creating the rough sketches enables me to get my ideas in my head down on paper so that I do not forget. Thanks to a place called SketchSheets.com they allow me to have access to almost every device on paper. This makes it much easier for when I bring it into design programs for the next stages.
Another important aspect of the design process is creating low fidelity wire-frames. This allows me to get the structure of a project in my design programs without having to worry much about colors, typography or the final touches quite yet... I have found wireframes to allow me to become very efficient throughout my process.
This is the part of the design process where the visual design is completed. This is where I find out my visual design languages, solidify my desired color scheme, typography, iconography and the overall look and feel of the project. Due to the sheer amount of artboards I'd have to post, I decided to create a video displaying the entire flow of each of my projects while using Adobe Experience Design.
