Designing DreamBox Math Interactive Lessons - Released Product
We needed to ship math content that addressed understanding fractions with unlike denominators. Unlike competitors providing digitized worksheets or "light" interactive learning modules, DreamBox lessons provide students with means to explore and understand mathematical concepts by interacting with "virtual manipulatives". DreamBox's teaching philosophy is to allow students to explore, experiment, and make mistakes in a "safe space" to help build conceptual understanding of mathematical concepts.
I took on the UIUX, Art Direction, and Visual Design tasks and collaborated with our Sr. UX Director, curriculum designer, and engineering to design the main interactions and user flows. I was also able to build on early UX prototypes that our Senior Artist had created when we first began collaborating on this project. Towards the end of the project, I was able to hand off the core UIUX design to another UX Designer for further refinement towards release, and our Artist created the necessary assets and animations. I also documented all designs and specs for the team to reference during development and QA testing.
Additionally, I designed the new Lesson Help feature during this project's development. You can view the project on Behance.
These "Unlike Fractions" lessons were released and are now part of DreamBox Learning's curriculum content.
