Testing an evaluation phase 2

I am going through the pros and cons of our findings in the testing phase of our home mess system.

testing and evaluation phase 2

Today, the testing was completed by the group and the data was gathered by observations, note taking. We used think out loud protocol with the user and did interviews at the end.

testing and evaluation phase 2

me and Kevin tested the prototype on a couple more users and interviewed them after the testing and also made notes while they were testing prototype 2.

Prototyping 2

So far my responsiblities from this project was to create a high fildi prototype using adobe director.

IIIIII there is no I in group work and part of being in a group is letting your fellow group members know when you are going to do the work and getting our approval before deciding on anything. Kevin has contributed in all our presentations nobody is denying that but so has every other person in the group so it’s not nice to point the finger at anyone. If the marks where not great then no one individually is to blame the whole group is.

Before making any decision in the group presentations please organise group meeting to discuss it because it seems unfair, like avais mentioned not everyone is familiar with the software used so we need to find out what is best for everyone.

Part 2 "PROTOTYPING AND EVALUATION"

It is a group assignment and i think we should all decide on the work, rather than making your own decissions and working on em. We all are equally responsible and worried for the marks and work done and presented. No one rushed any work or member before so i dont find you comment valid on that bases....
As far as the director is concerned, group need to meet up and decide. We all are not familiar with director and might not agree with it 100%.... If the whole process is going to be same then what about the disadvantages from evaluation???
Lastly,
If you think this group has been a mess up, then how come you never mention these wordings before???? You have put the same effort towards the group as me and rest of the members of group... Not being rude or anything... you cant be judging the whole group because you have not been happy with some work.. Because of your decission we didnt use prototype presentation and, we (me including the rest of the group members) think that we lost marks because of that... SO would you tell me who to blame..???
AS i mentioned before, this is a group work and you cant be making your own decissions... I actually cannot belive that you came up with this on the last week, you could had mentioned in group meetings if you had any problems...

Prototyping and evalution phase 2

I have started to prototype the paper based system into a electronic version, for this i am using director 11 to create the prototype and using the data gathered for improvement, this has also been done. I director i have used simple shapes to represent the interface and using text. The whole system will do the same process like the paper based version
Now in data gathering we need to get the right methods as last time the whole talk was wrong.
We need to gather the data using: walk through, expert etc.. and explain it carefully this time. Please this time dont rush this as this is the last chance and i do not want to get the worst grade. This group has been a mess up this year.
