Meeting summary and notes

Okay, so four of us met with Mike today. I'll just try and summarise what was covered:
  • We need to make sure we're covering the formal stuff. This page on the module page seems to cover what we need. Task analysis still needs fleshing out.
  • So far, our prototype seems to be fine, but we need to get it finished so we can try it out on our users.
  • The video footage, showcasing a couple of scenarios and how the system would respond, seems to be a good idea. Mike also suggested a cognitive walkthrough of the system from the perspective of one of our personas. When it's done, video footage can be placed on youtube and embedded in the blog posts.
To-do list for this week
  • Andy's still missing a few sets of screens for the prototype. If you haven't got them to him yet, please do so as quickly as possible so we can get the prototype finished!
  • Although we have use cases, they need to be construed in a more formal task analysis format. Since I did the use cases, I may as well do that as well.
  • Prepare questions to pose to our personas for feedback on the prototype, if we're going to do this in conjunction with the video footage.
  • Add 'technical ability' and 'goals' to your personas, if you haven't already.
  • With regards to the video footage, I have access to a digital camera that should suffice for the task. I also can get hold of a flat-cap and, if needed, a walking stick :) But we still need to decide which scenarios we're going to play out. Mike suggested focusing on a couple of good ones, and writing out the rest. We can probably derive them straight from the use cases, or the task analysis when I post it up.
Discuss/volunteer for tasks away!

First off, I'd like to point out that I'm still working on the sensors but hope to have that done and posted asap.

I can work on some questions for our personas on feedback for our prototype if that's ok with everyone?

I will also update my persona.

I'll update my persona asap. Not at home at the moment, but will get it done by tomorrow evening latest.

I've updated my persona by editing the previous post - the last two sections being new.

I'll look into questions and scenarios a bit this weekend.
