Who is this for? (CSC490 Capstone Blog 2)
For this week, my group tried to understand the users for our potential web application. Who is this for? Are they the same as us? What different motives do they have?
We had an idea of who our targeted users were, but not really who they were. UofT students! Rate my prof sucks! Course evaluations sucks! Wait, course evaluations are viewable? UofT students!
We created personas based on our research data, divided the work for the UX debrief, and went over the pitch deck.
The personas were done as a group based on our individual ideas during the in class persona activity. For the UX debrief I was responsible for the pain points section, provided feedback on the other sections, and helped make our content fit into two pages. In addition, I added the visual charts from our questionnaire and the target audience slide to the pitch deck. It was difficult writing concisely enough to fit our UX debrief into two pages, especially since we did not add any visuals other than a timeline chart. The persona creation also took much longer than what we anticipated.
