Card Sorting for an Academic Professional
The Professor Emeritus at University of Pennsylvania published a large number of documents throughout his career — from simple articles to entire books. He wanted a website that could house his publications as well as act as a central hub for anyone interested in his career and works. Due to the large number of publications, research topics, destinations, and other topics his website would need to cover, it was apparent from the beginning that Information Architecture and User Flow would be important aspects. To help define these, card sorting, as well as other techniques such as discovery sessions and simple interviews were conducted. Below is a visual representation of the results of that research.
