Design de interface para aplicativo mobile para auxílio de informações acadêmicas do curso de Design da UFAM

Abstract

When entering university, despite the information available on social networks, websites and institutional blogs, students find themselves lost inside the university, especially the Federal University of Amazonas, due to the space and the rapid change in daily life from a student who had all the information about their academic environment and support provided by the school at any time, to a vast academic universe where they have to navigate on their own. For veterans, despite having been at the institution for longer, it's no different, as access to academic information is not easy. Therefore, in order to reduce the initial shock for freshmen on the Design course and help them integrate into the academic community and help students as a whole to plan their academic life, as well as to better locate themselves within the Federal University of Amazonas easily and autonomously, this project will use methods and ways of improving the user experience through interaction design and interface design, which offer good usability and are objective. To develop the project, we used Munari's Methodology (1998), aligned with Meurer and Szabluk's Project E methodology (2010) and Preece, Rogers and Sharp's methodology (2017), aimed at developing interfaces and interaction design. In order to do this, a study was carried out with theoretical references, research with the academic community, analysis of similarities, data collection on colors and shapes, briefing, semantic panel, generation and development of alternatives. Finally, low and medium complexity wireframes were developed until the functional interface prototype was created, accompanied by an interface design document containing technical data. The results of this work show the importance of making academic information easily available inside and outside the Design course at the Federal University of Amazonas and how this improves the user's experience and perspective.
