Week 9: Report

A good bit has happened since my last posting. Our Task Analysis, Performance Objectives, User Profile, Hardware/software Specs, and Formative Evaluation Plan were all approved by our client.

Daisy has done more work on our screen design and treatment rationale. This document will be coming together very soon with the supporting info for the learning system design. This part of the project will be designed in a pre-set template, so this shouldn't be too much to add.

Kazu, HueiHsien and I have brainstormed ideas for our interactions and test items. We presented these to the team in our last meeting. This past week, while Daisy has done more graphic development, the rest of us have each worked on a prototype for a particular lesson. These should be based on the storyboards presented last week, as well as our team discussion. We're using a basic screen design to determine how much space we have for content and activities in our prototypes. This work will help us line up work for assembling our module. Some of our interactions will require a bit of creative programming and our SME's support through providing and approving test content.

I've also recruited Myra, one of our 6200 consultants, to help look at the page flow of our content, as well as final edits. I really hope we'll be able to divvy out work to our other 6200 consultants soon. I expect we will have graphic work and other parts that we'll need help on.

I've consolidated all of our storyboards into one document that details our project from the top of the learning system to lesson activities. With a little bit of elaboration, this should serve us well for the learning system documentation.
