Lilia: BELLA and RECEP, i have corrected point 7 and 8, according to Merja's comments. I have put below the next steps we have to do,these are the copy-paste from the slides. In two words, we have to interview some users and then describe the interview (very shortly) and

then to create a persona. I have done the part with usability aspects, any corrections-suggestions and additions are welcome. I ill be off next lesson and lab, but then will be back.

NEXT STEPS TO DO:

Interview:

Interview technique: ask your interview subject to  recall a specific event and describe to the best of their recollection how that event took place. Ask them to describe their experience when e.g.  they tried to find an apartment for rent...  

§Where were they?

§How long did it take?

§What computer equipment or software was used?

§What did they most enjoy about the experience?

§What was most annoying about the experience?

Built a simple persona from your data profile:

Include:

§Name

§A role or job title

§Quotes in the personas language

§Relevant demographics

§Descriptions that reveals goals, motivations, pain points

§Descriptions that describe primary activities  this user type will engage in, where and in which social relations

Important usability aspects:

-  efficiency (system should be efficient to use, minimum expediture of time and effort)

-  effectiveness (ability to complere a defined goal)

-  easy to learn (should fast and easy to learn how to operate)

-  clear purpose of different sections (understanding what each submenu is meant for and how it works)

-  clear structure (user should have understandig of the layout of the application)

-  accuracy and relevancy (data presented in the application, should be reliable and up-to-date).
