Labs Week 1- Brief
By this lab, students should already be in teams and should already have chosen the elements of the brief (e.g., target users, brief area).
In this lab, teams will start to refine what they will do for that brief. This includes writing a research hunt statement and a research plan:
What do you want to find?
How will you find it?
Which users (see brief) are you targeting?
What techniques (e.g., contextual inquiry, interviews (open or semi-structured), observation of users in the field (direct or indirect), etc.) will you use?
Resources
The following list presents some resources needed further down the course. These include tools for designing interfaces, team communication or prototype development.
