Spring 2025
Designing an Inclusive Teaching Toolkit
Instructors: Sourojit Ghosh and Mina Zavary
In this DRG, we will be building on previous work from the HCDE DEI teaching committee. For the last year and a half, we have been developing an inclusive teaching toolkit which will serve as a living resource for both instructors and students in designing new courses and improving current ones.
In past quarters, students co-designed a prototype of a webpage consisting of resources, an information architecture, and Figma screens that fit into a larger user flow. Students also user-tested the existing screens, analyzed data into themes/findings, and designed iterated screens to A/B test.
In this 2-credit Spring DRG, students will: Design a Figma prototype within 10 weeks based on collected user interview data, and conduct user testing Design and iterate on the Figma prototype based on testing data, while working within UW branding guidelines.
We will be recruiting 3-5 students who are experienced with Figma and visual design.
