    Flock of Legals: Designing an Interactive Website to Create a Community for Lawyers [original name changed to avoid trademark issues]
    (2015-04-17) Pachhapurkar, Shilpa; Hook, Sara Anne
    Our research identified an unserved niche within the legal technology marketplace. We observed that there was no comprehensive system for lawyers to connect with each other externally in a secure environment that would help them build a professional network of colleagues across the U.S. and even around the world. Our interactive website is intended to provide a LinkedIn-style community specifically for lawyers and is not for access by the general public. Our poster will feature a demonstration of the current iteration of the Gaggle on the Gavel website, including our logo, as well as provide diagrams of the interaction flow within the website and the results of a focus group we conducted on our efforts to design an online community for lawyers.

    Investigating the Impact of Interaction Design
    Buher, Melynda; Faiola, Anthony
    In recent years, the use of online courses has emerged as a way to quickly and easily deliver content to large numbers of trainees. In writing these courses, pharmaceutical course developers often use traditional instructional design models and techniques to design course content for online learning. But is this truly enough? Interaction design principles and practices can also be incorporated to increase the quality of learning by improving learner comprehension and retention. Using pharmaceutical content and learners, this research investigated how interaction design impacts online learning by measuring the effect of applying different graphical user interfaces. The results were surprising, as the data showed no significant improvement in retention rates between graphical treatments. However, the incorporation of graphics did slightly improve overall course satisfaction.
