IU SPEA

While working at Hirons I spent a lot of time managing the Indiana University School of Public and Environmental Affairs' web application for managing undergrad and graduate internship contracts. In the Summer of 2008 they decided to re-design and develop a whole new system from the ground up.

I was tasked with re-designing the contract forms that students fill out online to apply for internships to make them more usable and give a better user experience. Much of the design decisions were based off the wonderful work of Luke Wroblewski and his web form design research. The old forms contained no client-side validation and weren't even broken up into steps, making them pretty lousy.
