Project Log

Today I made the questionnaire for the users of creating a website. This document contains the important questions that are needed in order to make sure that our test is accurate. Also today I prepared some of the usability paper for final draft today before our group meeting. Later today we met for our group meeting and finished the usability study paper.

I created a website for our usability test. I put all our steps on there and will put the screen shots and videos in when Ally and I meet this evening. I created questionnaires online and put the link on the website so the subjects can complete them while they're on the site.

Ally and I are meeting tonight to finish the rough draft of our documentation.

I made a rough draft of the questionnaires for the usability test. I made one for before, during and after the test for the subjects to complete.

-Met with group during class to discuss documentation

-Created the questionaire for before the tutorial

-Will proofread the documentation rough draft when received

This week our group decided on when and where our usability testing will take place, and composed a draft of our documentation. During our group meeting outside of class, I created a two-part survey for users to complete before and after testing the documentation. These surveys will serve as media for demographic data. I also wrote up instructions as a supplement to the documentation that we will provide during user testing. Since each group needs to test 6-9 users, each of the four members in our group will recruit 2 users to test.

My group created our story board this week. We have decided on the time and place of our usability test.  I am doing a little more research so that we can finish our rough draft of the user documentation, which will be done this week.  We will also start work on our survey questions for the usability test. 

I completed a rough draft of the documentation.  I also reviewed the storyboard and added some items to it.  I am currently working on schedualing usibitlity test with subjects to test the rough draft documentation.

This week our task was to create a story board of our project. I worte an initial flow of the document and then took it into powerpoint. I used this data to create a quick storyboard with almost no information on it. Then, at the group meeting, we added specifics and hammered out the details of the documentation to ensure we compiled a complete document for our goals.
