Objective
To perform an audit and provide recommendations for User Experience on a platform for educating novices who wish to cultivate Blue-Green algae using open source 3d printing components. PROJECT OVERVIEW I was hired by Spirulina Society to evaluate and edit the existing content, and make recommendations for a structure to be developed. No new content was created- it was edited and restructured. Global architecture also needed to be designed. I was to engage a focus group assembled by Anya (founder), provide analysis about motivations and hurdles for users of this site, and edit the copy in a way that would be easy for the users to understand.
