1) Contextual Inquiry/Task Analysis (Assignment #4)
We came up with the Tutera idea as tutees and tutors ourselves and can understand the difficulty of getting extra help for a subject you need help with. With the idea, we interviewed various people which included tutors, tutees, and parents on how they would need or give subject help. We then created tasks based on these inquiries.
2) Concept Video & Sketches (Assignment #6)
We then came up with a concept video and sketches on how the mobile application would look. The sketches and UI storyboards were based on the tasks we created from the contextual inquiry.
3) Low-Fidelity Prototype & Test (Assignment #7)
We created a low fidelity prototype and tested it on new users. We found that some tasks and scenarios went over well but some needed to be changed or rethought completely.
4) Medium-fi Prototype (Assignment #9)
We updated our prototype based on the low-fidelity testing. We streamlined some tasks and made a semi-functional web application leveraging the Marvel prototyping tool.
5) Hi-fidelity Prototype (Assignment #12)
In process.
6) Heuristic Evaluation (Assignment #13)
We had class members (our peers) evaluate our Tutera application thus far and suggested changes. Some changes were minimal while others will take more time and effort.
7) Poster (Assignment #15)
In process.
