02 / DIGITAL LEARNING / CLIENT WORK
Wordless Stories
I reviewed how teachers found and used illustrated learning stories, then recommended ways to make the story and guidance clearer.
I REVIEWED
FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Four changes could make the experience clearer.
Teachers could arrive directly at a story.
Story pages received more visits than the collection page.
Give every story page context and a clear link back to the collection.
The story competed with supporting material.
People who started reading spent longer with the story than with the surrounding page.
Put the story first, with clear online and PDF options beside it.
Teaching guidance was spread across pages and PDFs.
Its purpose and sequence were hard to see.
Group it under “Using this story with your class”, explain each item and add web versions.
The growing collection needed a consistent structure.
Teachers should not have to relearn each page.
Use the same page structure and labels across stories.
ILLUSTRATIVE MOCK-UPS
Examples of how the recommendations could be presented.
These simplified mock-ups were created for this portfolio to illustrate the recommendations. Original project designs cannot be shared publicly.
I presented the review and recommendations to the client.
