Week 8

I think I missed the window for this post but oh well, better late then never right?

Back in week 8 we had a bit of work to do after the paper prototype. After using a semi working technical demo instead of a paper prototype we had a lot of good feedback to work on. We tried to focus on this feedback and brainstormed ideas on how to solve some of the problems that came up.

One interesting piece of feedback was that a lot of people were confused about how to use the app correctly. After creating something yourself its very easy to get lost in the mindset that your creation is perfect in every way and doesn't need changing. While I don't think that was our thought process, we might have been heading down that path. To combat the learning curve, we decided we would put in some information boxes that users could click on to see what they needed to do. Our hope is that these information windows will solve any learning issues new users might experience.
