We often find ourselves in situations with limited resources—most often, time. Prioritization is a key skill.
I prioritized improving the two most important features with the limited resources available.
The previous article page did not emphasize the most common actions.
In 2014, we had to do a significant amount of work on the back end of the article page on JSTOR, but there were no resources to completely redesign the user interface. We could make a small amount of changes, and I prioritized what was most important to me.
In this case, based on user research, I knew that the most common actions on the page were downloading the article and viewing the citation. While the design of the new page remained mostly the same, I was able to make these two actions more prominent, knowing that they would have the greatest impact for our users.
