Objective: Understand StrongMind's Design for Purpose.

StrongMind’s “Design for Purpose” information boxes connect a specific purpose with a color based on the psychology of color. This helps students build associations, become engaged and inspired, and absorb information more efficiently as they move through their courses.

StrongMind courses use a consistent design pattern that ensures proper segmentation in both content and design layout. Additionally, designers make sure the coding behind all text promotes accessibility for students.. From the headings to the order of what a screen reader reads first, purposeful coding makes the difference for students who rely on this technology so they can do their best. Additionally, our courses offer a visual balance between blank space and learning content, which implicitly identifies the beginning and end of course concepts. This approach not only helps learners with disabilities to overcome a barrier to learning (Keeler & Horney, 2007), but it has been shown to increase learning performance overall (Mayer & Pilegard, 2014).
