  2. The abundance of information accessible through the internet can be overwhelming. Concerning trends like fake news and sneakily sponsored content creates a need to identify the credibility of sources. People get news from the internet (primarily social media), making it di ffi cult to read information outside the political comfort zone within their newsfeed. This lack of visibility (and therefore understanding) of opposing views polarises society. How can people develop an informed opinion and be more empathetic to others with opposing views?

  13. How do you rapidly prototype a plug-in?

  14. By mapping the onboarding journey

  16. Put it on Sketch

  17. Make it clickable

  18. Get users to 
 click through it

  19. Keep 
 It 
 Key Simple, Finding Stupid!

  20. Iterate, Iterate, Iterate Iterated 
 from this……

  21. To this……

  22. User friendly means friendly language. Another Key Finding Complex problems and challenging issues don’t have to be hard for the user.
