Scenario Tasks

Observations

User 1.

1. Add button pressed before typing in activity
2. Clicked plan before adding constraints.  It was unclear to him that he needed to add constraints before planning.
3. On the final schedule page, he wanted to click on an activity to edit constraints
4. Constraints = property of activity; (find a better word for constraints)
5. When he pressed the constraints button, he expected ALL constraints to appear.
6. Unsure which constraint to change in the morning.  He tried to change the breakfast constraint instead of the start time constraint

User 2.

1. Wanted to add time to activity instead of constraints
2. Tried pressing Add button before typing activity.  Pressed Edit (which doesn't do anything)
3. Didn't know how to add constraint.  Couldn't find the + button. 
4. Tried to use the + button to add new activity
5. Wants a way to save constraints.  Confused that when she selects a constraint to add, it jumps back to previous page (added constraints) instead of staying in the list of possible constraints.
6. When wake up late, tried to press the breakfast activity and expected to go to the constraint window for the breakfast activity.
7. Wants an explicit button that says "running late?" or "replan"
8. On the constraints page, she wants to see the time the activity is currently planned to happen
9. Titles of pages confusing.  Activity vs Constraint as titles
10. Did not add trip name
11. Added "Wake Up" as an activity

User 3.

1. Pressed Add before typing in activity
2. Added all activities before adding constraints.  Added a "Wake Up" activity
3. Had a hard time finding how to add activity constraints.
4. He expected the order in which he added the events to be the even
5. He did not constrain the "Wake Up" activity, so it showed up last.  Then he dragged the "Wake Up" activity to the top of the schedule.
6. Changed start of Wake Up time to 9:30 directly on the schedule and wanted the rest of the schedule to update using this information (push everything else down).
7. It is not obvious what to word "constraint means
8. Wanted to be able to add events (ie "wake up") that doesn't have a duration
9. Individual constraints (used the most) should be the default instead of having to switch from global
10. Unclear what "global" and "individual" means.
    

Summary:

1. change the + button
2. better words for "Global", "Individual", and "Constraints"
3. need better learnability for adding constraints.  maybe change the flow and titles for the contraints pages
4. Figure out how to interact with the schedule page.
