The user liked that there were multiple ways to do each task - it makes it very convenient!
Reflection
- In general, we found this class highly rewarding to learning about user-centered software design. Though the Spiral Model is frequently preached in other software development classes, only in this class is it truly emphasized. Cheap iterations played a large role in honing out developed UI ideas, preventing us from spending the effort to implement a feature that was not well-received.
- In the future, one thing I would find particularly useful is another round of paper prototyping, especially evaluating design decisions we were not totally sure about. In user testing stage, we should be more persistent about clarifying what exactly was difficult about a particular task, if any difficulty is found.
