Creating Lo-fi Prototype
After speed dating session, we had an idea about what our stakeholder’s preference. We went through a discussion to talk about basic functions and generated a lo-fi prototype.
We decided to support students’ work session, our interactive whiteboard/table needs to have four documentation functions, save, picture (taking both digital and physical materials), audio recording, and finally video recording. And students can log in to the front page to check on their previous work record for reference or drag them into their current workspace and add on that.
To tackle on students’ product management skills, we also design a timeline for the automated generated folders to keep their working artifacts. Students will set up milestone points in advance, and their work will be saved after each work session and they will be sequenced by format. It’s easier for further retrieval, and when they decide to turn in some work for a deliverable or milestone, they can drag their work into the milestone folder for instructor to see.
We also designed a reflection function, after each work session, we will generate some prompting questions for students to reflect on their previous work, and save it as a reflection file in the folder. And for instructor view, we designed a featured comment function, instructor can add audio or text comment to the documents handed to him.
After we generated our main functions, we use whimsical to build up a lo-fi prototype.
We then built up a paper prototype and scheduled testing session with students and instructor in maker space course to hear what they think about it.
