This is a hypothetical interaction design illustration. The university has made no accouchements or commitments to a project of this nature.
In order to give a convenient self-service solution for students to access personal and course-related material, Strayer University would like prepare a mobile Web application that runs on an iPhone, iPad, Droid, Blackberry, and other mobile devices. Students are currently able to use the Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, and other desktop browsers to perform self-service tasks. The university has asked you to give a Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) guide that will help with the design and implementation of this service.
The paper must address the subsequent topics:

3. Design each of the subsequent using Microsoft Visio or any open source wireframing or mockup tool.
4. Prepare a proposal to the University including the following:
a. The prototypes that could be created.
b. The type of usability testing to use in evaluating the design that will provide the best user experience.
c. The type of evaluation methods to use in evaluating the design that will provide the best user experience.
Implementation
5. Provide details of how the mobile self-service will be implemented on the several mobile devices. Note: Keep in mind that the university already provides a self-service Website for non-mobile students.
Maintenance and Growth
6. Elaborate on the guidelines for how the self-service Website can be kept current as newer mobile devices are being introduced at a rapid rate.
7. Use at least three quality resources in this assignment.
