Personal Activities

Name: John Doe

A role or Job Title: Student

     "How can i register for a course?"

John Doe is a third year media engineering student.He lives in Lintuvaara. Over his study years he has used winha to put his personal data, to check all the courses that are offered through out the 4 years, to check the courses offered for the specific period , to check the compulsory and optional courses, to check the grades that he has got from different courses.In winha, which is a frustrating thing for him is that when browsing through it ,it is difficult to find what he wants. For example when he wants to enroll , he has to click ISP in the winhaa page  and then enrollement.But since the term ISP is not self discriptive, he has to  ask from students how to enroll (MB so he does use e.g., mobile when using Winha...).Besides when he clicks the help tab , user help file appears which is written in finnish.

MB: Please finnish this task ASAP and move to task 2. The Task 1. is missing still the usability criteria for the students users of Winha. These you need for the task2. Finnish both task during this week 47 since next week 48 we should do the pilot testing of your test plan (task2).
