Prototypes:
- Ameritech Training CD-ROM
- Sample Training Module
Ameritech sent Echo 3 a RFP for redesigning
a series of CBT programs used to train their customer service
representatives. We included graphics as part of the proposal
to better illustrate our ideas.
The original program was run from the hard
drive and CD and displayed on 21 inch monitors at 1024 x 768 resolution.
It was programmed in Authorware. I went through four of the modules
to understand the structure and content of the program and then
redesigned the screen real estate for a more practical and user-friendly
approach. The top screen was my solution to some of the design
flaws in the program.
The bottom screen is another prototype designed
for a client who wanted to demonstrate the basic elements needed
in a computer based training program. I designed the screens and
animations that accompanied the responses to the questions and
assembled the elements in Flash.
