In class we have discussed the idea of user-centered and task-centered
design. I have presented some example scenarios and the slides talk about
properties of good ones.
For this homework, you will create some task scenarios in the following
context:
The University is contracting out a project to replace ELMS 3.0 with
something that everyone might like and use. You have been asked to
compile a list of 5 task scenarios to help the contractors as they
begin their design. They will start with paper prototyping after they
read and brainstorm around the scenarios you submit.
Remember, don't be system-centric as you write these. The system will
be custom-built after the users and tasks are explored.
Make your set of five scenarios,
print that to a PDF and e-mail it to me at egolubUMD@gmail.com
with the subject "HW #2"
before class time on October 15th.
AFTER October 15th (ie: October 16th or later) but before class time
on Ocotber 20th please visit
this Google Moderator page to share the tasks scenario you created
that you think is most important or interesting.
You can also vote
up existing scenarios there that are similar to ones you had or that
you just find interesting.
Remember, you will turn in the scenarios from the first part by
"printing" it to a PDF file and then sending it to me at
egolubUMD@gmail.com with the subject as "HW #2".
