Overview

For this written assignment, you need to identify the "users" of what you are creating as your project and talk about the "tasks" they will be able to accomplish with what you create. We have discussed that each project has its own definition of "user" and "task" that you should be considering. The first part of this assignment is to describe your users. The second part is to describe two to five examples of their tasks. The third part of the assignment is to discuss how you have or how you will get in touch with example users to gain feedback about what you have created and how well it supports their taaks, either as you are creating it or later in the semester when it has been created. Please consider the things we talked about in class and refer back to the slides on user and task centered design.
