Low-Fidelity Prototypes

slide-8
SLIDE 8

Pixar makes the some of the most detailed, beautiful and poignant films

slide-9
SLIDE 9

They always start with a st

  • storyboard. Why?

Storyboard can test the coherency of a story at a high level, while it is still easy to change it.

slide-10
SLIDE 10

It’s not just animated films. Live-action use storyboards, too.

slide-11
SLIDE 11

Storyboards are also good for prototyping software interactions

Given a task or goal, can the user navigate through the system coherently?

Paper Prototypes

slide-16
SLIDE 16

Paper Prototypes:

  • Put your low-fi prototype in front of

users.

  • Give them a task.
  • Ask them to think out loud as they do the

task

  • Don’t interrupt them.
  • Don’t lead them.
  • Observe “critical incidents”
  • Times they are unsure
  • Times they did the wrong thing
  • Write it down, possible take photos.

Interface #1: Task: “Get directions to locations A, B, C and D.”

Interface #2: Task: “Get directions to locations A, B, C and D.”

What if the prototype is to

too polished?

Getting user feedback from a paper prototype:

  • Give the user a task:
  • “Log into the system and post on somebody’s wall”
  • “Search for tweets using the most popular hashtag”
  • “Add a new slide with two column template”
  • “Edit a post”
  • Observe what they do
  • Encourage people to think-aloud
  • Look for “critical incidents.”
  • Times were users are unsure what to do, do the wrong thing

Milestone #3 Feedback

slide-22
SLIDE 22

Feedback on specificity of interaction

Needs more specificity: “search”: what do you do after they’ve found them “play”: what is a more specific way you can play them to aid this task “Rate” or “order”: what more can you do to support this task. Good specificity of interaction: “make notes on specific parts of the video” “click on [something else] to bring up a video” “replay specific segments in slow motion” “take a screenshot” “draw on a screenshot” On the right track, but needs a little more: “compare two videos”: how? What is the user looking for in the comparison? “create a playlist”: anything more task-specific? “make comments”: Where? How? What’s the best way to make comments in this domain?

Activity: Sharing your Specific Needs

  • Person #1: Share 1 specific need.
  • The idea doesn’t have to be perfect!
  • Others:
  • Brainstorm ways to make it even more specific, or
  • Brainstorm ways to make it use different specifics.
  • Person #1:
  • Listen.
  • Write it down.
  • Don’t defend your idea.
  • Say “thank you,” even if you hate the ideas.

Given a task or goal, can the user navigate the interaction coherently?

Low-Fi Prototypes mitigate risk by getting feedback on the most fundamental aspects

  • f the design first

Pixar starts with storyboards. Software starts with paper prototypes

Milestone #4: Pa

Paper Pro rototype (due Monday @ @ class)

Pick two of your specific needs

  • For each specific need, make a paper prototype for two different

designs.

  • For each design, have at least one task you want to test with users

that gets at the coherency of the interaction. Bring your prototype to class, and we will test on people.
