This week, I helped to finalize the report. I had all the pre-test and post-test questionnaires, so I helped to distribute them to the appropriate parties. I also helped in making final editing decisions like adding a cover page.

This week, we split up the final parts of the documentation project. I took the introduction, the user profiles, and the data collection and analysis methods of the usability report. I finished writing those portions Friday night. Furthermore, I collected the other parts from my team members and compiled them into a rough draft of our report. It is now making the rounds among team members for editing.

This week I participated in storyboard revision. Upon its completion, it was necessary to review it in order to fix any typographical or content-based errors. Also, I spoke with the group and helped to devise a final plan for our usability testing. Per my suggestion, we decided that each group member should try to produce two potential test subjects.
