Benton County Website Critique By Matt Moore and Ricci Keller

Presentation Goals Overview of Website, Audience, & Purpose Navigation Organization Design Proposed Adjustments Conclusion

What is Socioeconmics? Socioeconomic status (SES) is the social standing of an individual or group in terms of their income, education, and occupation. An individual’s income, education, and occupational status are often closely interrelated http://www.apa.org/about/gr/issues/socioe conomic/ses-health.aspxl

The Website Unbalanced, color scheme, too many graphs http://www.co.benton.or.us/health/health_status/socioeconomics.php

Audience Primary Secondary Tertiary Gatekeepers Decision makers of Benton County City Council Secondary Advisors of decision makers The Governor Tertiary Evaluators of Socio-econmic health topics Politicians, Health officials Gatekeepers Benton County Board of Commissioners People providing the data

Purpose The purpose of this website is to provide Socioeconimic health status information to intended audience.

II. Navigation Not “user friendly” Links are hard to see at top of page Links don’t correlate Links on side bar not alphabetized and there are too many No back button on site

II. Navigation

III. Organization Link issues cause lack of organization Too many categories to choose from Narrow down main topic Expand within each topic Reflects lack of communication about how to organize information Charts and Graphs confusing

IV. Design Aspects Balance Alignment Grouping/Use of white space Consistency Contrast

Design Balance Dark border on left vs. white space on the right

Design Alignment Text not justified Graphs and Charts do not have same dimensions and seem to be placed where they will fit NO CONSISTENCY to the alignment of graph size, placement, and association of text

Design Grouping There is no obvious grouping Spacing between charts and graphs is almost non-existent Headings are not distinct A border may help sight look more clean lined

Design Consistency Inconsistent color choice for graphs and charts Bullets vs numbering in lists are not consistent Graphs and Charts labled, but not in the same manner throughout Uses a font with serifs, helpful with a professional look

Design Contrast Background color could be helpful to make charts and graphs a focal point Dark Blue color provides good contrast with the white text, but the text is hard to read Which one can you read better? Which one can you read better? Which one can you read better? Most like the website

Graphics Attach charts to assigned graphs Decide to use text to describe all figures or none Some graphics are too small/blurry
